I just installed them on my 8. I t was a lot of trial and error. Your bese bet is to find a picture of another IX with them and then try to duplicate it.

I recommend doing only one canard at a time. Start with the bottom one, then go to the other side of the car, to the bottom one. Then do the top one.

I have not noticed any issues with mine. I really feel a difference at higher speeds. The front does not want to wander as much.
