I've just fitted new pattern front lips to both my cars, and both have round holes in the metalwork and rectangular holes in the spoilers. (neither has had any new metalwork)
The secret is to use original clips, which are designed with a square part to locate the spoiler and a round pin which goes through the metal lip and locks in place with an inner pin.
Look here:

The clips can be a little fragile - I put them in hot water before fitting to soften them
