I haven't got round to fitting mine yet, can't decide whether to drill them or not?

i've been having a look for some decent carriers although i don't really want the ones with ABT on them tbh, my question is though, has anyone swapped the front curved mount for a carrier and how does it fit/look? Can you post a close up pic please?
I quite like "the spirit of Wolfsburg" ones but i'm not sure..
