Default how to fit carbon splitter

hi guys, just wondering what the best way to fit this is....is it just a case of self-tapping screws...or do you use something exisitng thats under the bumper already (not had a look under there yet)

cheers for any help

Nice frs m8.
Is there any benefit having a carbon one over say just an abs plastic type which would cost alot cheaper if you was going to paint the splitter anyway?
can you still see the carbon effect from the weeve through the paint?
