Broke my s module and curious if anyone has used bolts instead of rivetes? Does it matter ?

Bolts VS Rivets
I used bolts rather than rivets, they are stronger, get stainless steel grade 5 or 8 for that matter. On my new 2016 E-Tec before it even saw snow I installed Rip & grip brace. They have re-configured their brace system for the modules and now it's a one piece unit that extends from the front A-arm bolts to the rear pan where it is riveted with about a half doz. rivets. Think it was about $129 and it covers both S & E modules. DO it!

Cool that will make the job a lot easier. Thank you for the response too! I do have the old style grip n rip kit and I actually bent the rear piece..
