Any How-to's for MT Front Lip?

Does anyone have a detailed description on how to install a front lip properly?
I understand people use double sided tape and screws or rivets. But anyone know about where the best place to put screws and tape on the lip? I'd really hate for it to fly off when traveling 80 or 90 mph.
Thanks

I just slid mine on and put two 1" screws in the fenders. They aren't even flat screws, but you can't tell unless you look inside the wheel well. I have kept it like that for over a monthwith no problems. Done over 100 many times with and everything is fine. I am having it painted and installed correctly on monday. I think that they put two screws on each side instead of one like I did and tape in the front where the top of the lip meets the bottom of the car. I think they also put some tape on the sides so that there aren't any gaps as the lip gets closer to the wheels.
