Default Fog light installation help

Hey guys, recently got the Vertex clone kit(VIS) and there is a spot to put the OEM fog lights. Problem is, there is no where to screw in the fog lights. Anyone know how to install something like this?

Probably going to have to put the tabs behind that section and use self tapping screws. If it's to thin to screw into, you'll have t build up with fiberglass.

You got to love it when body kit manufacturers are too cheap to make a provision for this. This is what makes me keep my stock bumper.

I have the same kit, VIS, picked it up in Walnut and we only had to do a small mod to get the fogs to fit rite, it was alot more work to get everything else to fit right, the piece between the headlights had to be cut and remade cause they didn't curve with the headlights, haha, but patience & time and you'll get it rite. As for the fogs a little Fiberglass work, and also maybe it was just for the picture but ur fog lights install from the back.
