How do I attach front license plate?

I have a 1998 Civic and I need to attach the front license plate.There are holes in the bumper but nothing behind them.Do I need to remove the bumper to put nuts and bolts or is there other options?Any help is appreciated.

The holes should be threaded.

If not then you will need to remove the bumper and put nuts on the back, or tap the holes.

If you think a good mechanic is expensive, try hiring a bad one

Move the plate up or down a smidge, use some sheetmetal screws to hang it on?
