Default where to jack up

This probably sounds stupid, but I want to lift up my 94 Civic LX to put on jack stands. I see a spot to place the jack, but I don't see where I can have enough room to put a jack stand. I don't want to put the jack stand where its going to sink into weak sheet metal. I've done that before.

I remember for the rear you jack up on the little tow ring underneath the rear bumper, then put the jack stands under the reinforced tabs. I forget where in the front but its all in the service manual.

-wait, I'm lazy, its next to me-

there's a bracket underneath the middle of the front bumper, it looks like it's to the rear of that piece of plastic. from the drawing it looks like it has a dip in the middle of the bracket and maybe a hole on each side of the dip, but these things aren't very descriptive.
