I suspect you will have to get a new bumper which is not precut for headlight washers. US and Japanese market cars do not normally have washers, so their bumpers don't have the cutouts. Or if you are handy with bodywork you can patch the cutout with fibreglass and body filler, then repaint the bumper.

The washer nozzle assembly is available as a whole pre-painted part that snaps into place on the fixture in the bumper.
