I have seen the cable tie job before. What was fitted originally are Citroen metal clips (these ones are on ebay). You will need more than 5, more like 10. They are easy to fit, no special tools required. Replace both the male and the female part for best effect.

Female is push fitted to the subframe and the Male holds the under engine tray to the subframe.
