Seibon Hood Installation Instructions?

Well, I decided to bite the bullet and order a Seibon Carbon Fiber hood. Trying to find a used Chili Red one bought and shipped or taking the other hood I picked to get repainted was almost as expensive as buying it (plus it looks cool and doesn't seem to weigh anything).

However, I just got it and it doesn't seem to be pre-drilled for just about anything - including the hood hinges!

Are there better instructions out there? Am I SOL and just need to figure it out on my own? I emailed the person I bought it from to see if he'd installed one before and if this is just what it is and I have to deal with it. Also emailed Seibon to see if they have better instructions too but I thought I'd ask here as well to see if anyone has any experience.

Glad I picked it up today so I can mess with it this weekend...
