Default Need some help installing hinges

I am getting ready to install hinges on my kit. I am going to install dubro nylon hinges and not sure of exactly how to do that. Also do I wait until after I cover my plane to do that or prior to covering? I am also open to the idea of using robart hinge point hinges. Not sure which would be better or even easier to install.

I totally understand already that I have to cut a notch out with my slot cutter or hobby knife and use epoxy. Basically, my biggest concern is putting holes in the covering when I put in the toothpicks for support or is that impossible? Or I would have to install them underneath so you don't see the holes?

Thanks for any help.
