Default Skid Plate?

So i received the stock skid plate with my car.... but i have no clue how to hook it up to the car. i believe it may be push pins/ body clips? idk because there are just large holes on the plate and obviously where it hooks to the car. Anybody know what attaches it and where i could get the fasteners for it? thank you

^^^ what he said, it's screws all around and in the back should be a bracket that it screws into.

Ha!!! I got robbed at the stealership for 2 of the plastic black bolts with a slot and 2 corresponding clips for $27. Talk about a rip off. Count yourself lucky if you can get all those pieces for $40. Note to self to pocket those the next time I'm at the junk yard.

just like the dealer charges $30 for an alignment bolt for a rear set-up then charges another $5 for the washer for the other side and $6 for the nut... seriously? #1 why not make it a kit, how often do you need to replace the bolt but not washer or nut? #2 to charge that much?

Ya it's almost as if they know you will be in shock and can't say no as they wave their hand using their Audi mind tricks. "Yes I like paying 30 bucks for a bolt". "Yes I will come again to get ripped off".

I went there to try and get a fuel filter and they had none in stock, would take 3 days to get there etc... So i said, well can I just get the washers then and I'll go buy the filter somewhere else. They told me that they would have to order the washers for $10.....$10 for 4 washers.
