my front bumper came with no holes but the body shop made holes in OEM places.
is this kit a lip kit? if so, my last lip kit, i had to make my own holes as well so i could screw them into the wheel well on each side (2 holes each side) and i used 3m double sided tape in the middle. this seems to be the standard that most people use.

shoot, i only used polyurethane.

sorry man. guess my help was only limited. hopefully someone will help you out with the carbon fiber portion.
I have heard people put tape on top of the carbon fiber before drilling so lessen the "damage"

try searching about people who have drilled hood pins into their carbon fiber hoods. it should be the same method.

I had to drill 20 some holes into my CF hatch to attach a lexan rear window, no problems.

Use a step bit, or drill a small pilot hole and work your way up with progressively larger bit sizes, you will be fine. Also, let the bit do the work, dont apply much pressure to the drill.
