Default Cobra foglight lights on a SN95 GT

I bought a cobra front bumper and I bought some cobra fog lights. I was wondering if anyone else has done this? I thought they would probably just bolt right up, but I was wrong. The holes really don't match up, and I can't get the lights to set up there so I can set the bumper up to see how they do fit. I was thinking about just buying a damn cobra bumper reinforcment so they'd match up. Anyone try this?

I can post some pics of my problem... I think I just need to drill the holes out a little so I can get some play in them. The stock GT headlight brackets bolt holes are kind of different.

Here's one... I'm not sure if I should just make the holes bigger on the bracket. One hole will line up and the other won't completly. I was thinking about just making all of the holes bigger and just use a washer, then line them up accordingly to the bumper.

put the bumper on first, then insert the light so it centers up in the hole in the bumper, mark where your holes SHOULD be... then drill some new holes IF needed

I've already tried doing that and it's pretty hard getting your hand or arm up into the bumper.. I guess I'll be taking the brackets to the drill press. Get some big washers and just get someone to help me align them when I get them up there. Custom fabrication FTW!!1!
