Default Nismo v1 lip - help needed

Hey guy's, I just bought a nismo v1 front lip which has been discontinue from a facebook vendor. I was hoping it would have came with everything to install my lip onto my front bumper. No instruction, no screws,bolt whats so ever. I pay a pretty high price for it, hoping I would at least get instruction on how to install it. I noticed behind the lip there is 3 molded stud sticking backward from the inside lip on each side. I was wondering would i have to drill some kind of hole into my 03 bumper or what the heck to do with them.

Lips I've seen use the 10mm bolt/screws that are already on your car.
They are on each side.There should be a tab off the lip on each side.
Lips that fit,like a Mines,have holes pre-drilled.Possibly since is a low end lip,
you have to drill holes in the material to match the position of the bolts that are already on the car.You need 3-m tape to fasten other areas to get a proper fit.
200 bucks,dont complain.
Hope it stays on.

Pictures please. If you are referring to an authentic Nismo lip then you will have to drill holes into your bumper.

Like I said, you will have to drill holes to utilize those prongs unless you can Dremel them off and use double sided tape but that's up to you. These threads may be helpful:

Thanks for link, i'll probably just drill hole into my bumper for a flush fit and probably rewrite a diy with actual working photo.
