then we put the driver side part up to it and temporarily put some bolts (6 mm) and nuts (same) at the exhaust holes.
then we marked the place were the studs were at.

but really the studs fit wherever they friekin feel like it.

we used silicone to fill up the holes and fill around the bolt.
That stud that had broken off, we were able to get 3 turns on it. so it worked out.

the other piece was a bit harder due to its length. If you're doing this alone. you'll have more problems than we did. we put it up to the car and put in the two bolts near the exhaust and the one in the middle. then we marked the holes.
