Default (Wierd) How To Install "JDM" Tow Hooks?

I ordered some off of ebay, and I dont really know how to install them.

Now before you all go flaming me for being a ricer, I got them for ACTUAL function. Last week I had to have my car towed, it took the guy about 10 min to hook up to the front of my car (on the underside) to get it hooked up to go up the ramp and on the bed of the towtruck. Now, I found some online for $25, for a front and a back, for "honda prelude" ( I assume its universal, just saying "prelude" to get the sale), and I kinda was looking them over and I have no idea how to put them on. Theres 2 of them, it came with 2 half-circle metal "washers" it looks like, and 2 bolt/nut combo pieces, but no instructions.

I was looking at the existing hook locations, and it doesnt even look like these are built to bolt to them,

So if anyone has them, and can post pics of their underside of their car so I can see how its done, or simply link me to a DIY on it, that would be appreciated.

Most tow hooks use the rear tow "loop" in the back.

Maybe check benen's website for an instruction pdf, if not I might be able to find my brother's copy.

For the front, we drilled a hole in the bumper support.
