I normally use heavy duty numberplate sticky pads to save drilling the plates although my bro used Tiger Seal (the stuff used for sticking on bodykits) on his last time!

Take the old plates off, then measure the distance between the 2 holes. Then measure the drop, I placed my front plate just a touch under the black plastic. Once you've got the measurement get the drill out!!
Always drill through from the back of the plate to prevent the backing coming away from the front, that's what causes the ugly grey rings around the screw holes, and use a block of wood to dril against to prevent the plate from splitting.
Do the same at the rear!!

good luck
