Default Cowl Lacing Install- Seeking Wisdom

I have the Bratton cowl lacing kit for my 31.

Look like the J hooks get riveted to the ends and then there are the 3 screws.

I am guessing I want the J hooks installed first so they fit snug and then put the screws in so they pull lacing tight.

What is the best way to put the screw holes in the lacing?

Does the lacing need some flattening?

I already have the lacing hanging from the ceiling with a light weight on the end to pull it straight and get the twists out of it.

The screws I believe should be the same used on the gas tank. What finish should they be?

Thanks!
