Default Civic Type R Front Lip Install

So I finally bought the type r lip for my 99 civic and I've been looking around on the forum for suggestions on the installation. I've heard that you could just use 2 screws on each side of the lip and some double sided tape but I dont think the tap will be enough. I've also heard that you can just go buy the clips from your Honda dealer that fit onto the bumper. I have even heard that some people are using rivets to make sure its really secure. Can anyone give me some solid info on what to do?????

i like to use torx hardware. that way they get a big surprise that their variety of allens, flat head, and philips theft tools wont work rendering them powerless against my thoughtful, inexpensive theft deterent.

However you do it, Please use more than two screws, my friend lost his lip on the freeway that way. I'd recommending using at least six screws/bolts.
