looks like the shop took your bolts and did NOT use them. Like i said, and like geist said, its a physical impossibility for them to "just fall off"
we sent them with the kit, not sure what happen to them. I'll get you some again come monday.

You should be good though just take your car back to them in a couple hundred miles and have them recheck to make sure all the bolts and nuts are tight. Thats standard they have you do that.

Thats why I like to do all my own installs. I know I installed every bolt, nut that was taken off and needed to be installed. Everything is torqued to spec and bolts or nuts aren't lying around extra. Plus if I blow my own stuff it was me that did it. Not a shop thats NOT going to take responsibiltiy and say its not our fault.

I actually took a real conservative route and used an Ultimate Racing kit, with some customization. I working with Blacktrax Performance out here in Milpitas, CA (Nor Cal). The mechanical part is all done. And they should get to tuned by Monday or Tuesday.

CONGRATS!
After seeing your old Civic, this doesn't surprise me. You've always had a great sense for modding.
Enjoy the boost and congrats again for being one of front runners on this kit.
