I didn't have one when I did mine but it's quite simple actually. It helps when you have at least one other person with you, but two would really be helpful.

I had someone hold up one end while I held up the other and then marked where the first hole would be made. I followed this process until i got to the last one. It helps when you make the holes wider, not just a perfect circle.

Yup,

My friend had the front lip on his bumper but his body shop that put it on threw away the template.

So when I sold him my super nice condition bumper and we had to swap the lip, we didnt have the template to go by, but as the poster said above me, it was still really easy.

Just take your time and get the lip "half on" the bumper, and then mark those points where the screws go into, then drill em out!

I realize I have a coupe and not a sedan but the install should be pretty similar... I didn't have a template or a friend or a body shop to help me haha.

I just held it up, aligned one part, put a little mark on the bumper, went from bracket to bracket until I thought I had them in the right spots... THEN what I did, was I bolted on the ENDS first, and went back to the center brackets and looked to see where to mount them. I ended up mounting the bracket a little farther towards the rear of the car to get the lip to sit where I wanted it to. Good luck!

^^^

Not as simple as that as it requires a little bit of stretching, but it does give a good idea.
