Need help with making brackets to mount headlights in Evo 5

Hey guys.

I have a Mitsubishi Evolution 5 which was taken off the road for an illegal modification. Half a year later and thousands gone in getting it ready to be road legal again it failed its inspection because of my aftermarket headlights.
My headlights were projecting light in the opposite direction so is believed to be built to usa spec for lhd cars.

I bought some factory headlights yesterday but I can't mount them as my stock headlight brackets were removed by the previous owner during the installation of the aftermarket headlights.

The bracket is supposed to be riveted to the guards.

I've tried looking for the part but most places incl Mitsubishi say it's part of the guard assembly so cannot be sold separately.
As a last resort I'd prob have to get them custom made. Has anyone made these before that can point me in the correct direction?

Cheers.
