Mine finally came in hopefully the 2019 sport coupe 2.0 has the threads already
What was the outcome? I have a 2019 Civic Sport Sedan 2.0 CVT and I haven’t seen confirmation this will fit yet.

I did this install today. I figured why the hell not since I was changing my oil and would be under the car anyway.

I wasn't expecting much, but in combination with my Siri Moto sway bar kit the results were surprisingly good! The car feels more stable just cruising and in the corners. It seems to have reduced my oversteer a bit. Judging by how my tires are squealing, I'm pushing the limits of what the stock wheels can handle.

I think the brace and bolts costed me $40 total from the dealership, but it was money well spent. Cheap easy upgrade. Thanks to everyone who posted here. I never would have thought about this otherwise.

What are the torque requirements for the bolts?

2016 sedan here. First one I’ve seen post about this so I thought I’d share. It works on my car. Bolt holes and threads are there.

After having it on for almost 24 hours here are my thoughts. (Just for reference I have not modified my sway bars or suspension in any way.)

the front definitely feels more planted. The car feels more darty and will go where you point it. It does however amplify that I have a stock rear sway bar (which is good because I’m upgrading it to the si sway bar). The back seems to wobble a lot more. But all in all I love it!

So for those with an SI, there's literally nothing to remove (aside undercarriage I presume) and just purely install?
