@alejandroads123 , you have any issues with the hardware putting on canards? I'm using what APR sent, and 3 have now snapped. I can feel the bolt getting warm, then almost when nut is close to final point, it's super tight >> then snaps. I put WD40 on the last one, and still snapped. I'm going to HomeDepot to get replacements.

I haven’t got any issues ,you don’t need to tight to much , the canards are very light weight and with the hardware who comes whit is good enough.

@alejandroads123 , thanks for vent tips...2 hours later (measure 4xs before drilling those 5 holes)...got one side done ?? It's actually pretty simple as long as you:
1. realize how vent comes off and multiple clips associated with the vent
Remove front fake vents without taking the bumper off | 2016+ Honda Civic Forum (10th Gen) - Type R Forum, Si Forum - CivicX.com
2. tape up the bumper as shown in directions from APR (all horizontal strips so you can trace/sketch out the bevels)
...make sure to tape up around the vents to avoid scratching when vent pops off but held by other clips (see #1 point video)
3. double/triple check your measurements for holes
4. utilize masking tape to hold canards and bolts in place if doing by yourself
