Why are the holes not in perspective? I have done some renders with the same kind of issues regarding holes and have some feel for what you went through. You really need to use the copy and divide features inherent in SU. Like me, I think you need to go through the pain of doing it wrong to appreciate how good it feels to do it right.

move tool + hold CTL. Much easier. also, you can make hole components, it's not too hard.

Not just move and control. That is just the beginning. You should do move and control and the type x N in the dimensioning dialog box. The "N" being the number of copies you want. Once you get the hang of it a skilled operator could do the whole side in under 5 minutes with mathematical perfection. It takes more times I would like to admit to get used to this but it cuts work time by at least a factor of 10. You will hate it the first time, be OK with it the second time and swear by it from then on.
