Civic Tow Hook

Ok, I bought a set of tow hooks awhile back and never got around to fitting them, well I wanna fit them now but I can't seem to find out where to install them. From what I've seen from other peoples cars with them, I want to mount it in the same place where Mike's red hatch has his. But my problem is, under the front bumper the place to mount it, the holes are really far apart and small, so there's no way of mounting it without drilling new holes? Help?

Can someone (aka Mike) take a picture of under the front of their car so I can see what it looks like? IDK if American Civic's are different, I've also noticed how some of the tow hooks are mounted so they stick out the front grill on the bumper, but we don't have the front bumper reinforcement... Asuming that's what you mount it too.

Sorry about this n00b question, but this is really bugging me.

you shouldn't have to drill holes, I mounted mine right to the frame up front. I only used one bolt tho not two. I will try and find you a pic
