F-1 Grill Dressing

Has anyone install the aftermarket grill covers for the 48-50 F-1? I am looking for tricks on marking the holes and placing the fasteners to attached to the grill covers and are bolted to the grill bars.

I have two trucks and three grilles and wouldn't you know it, none of them have the holes for the stainless bars so I'm looking at doing much the same. However, since the attaching fasteners slide within the bars, I don't think it matters too much where you drill the holes in the grille. When I get around to it, I'm just going to spread them out evenly so that the bars hold good and be done with it...
