You can get replacements, i remember seeing a receipt from ford in my cars history having them all replaced

They are just push-in/pull-out covers, little plastic things. They should be dirt cheap, maybe try some wreckers (try to get some off as late model a car as possible) - probably not the sort of thing in demand and I bet you'd find them still on the cars in the wreckers' yards.
I reckon you shouldn't leave them off, as that entire rail is then open to collecting water and crap which won't wash away, and I'd guess you're asking for rust problems down the line. I'd put some tape over them in the meantime.
If you're interested this is what they look like. As you can see, mine are badly damaged from UV exposure - they should be matt black like bumper surrounds. I am painting mine body-color at the moment instead of replacing them, nice little project.
