Dumb Question Thread - No Flaming Allowed

Hello everyone! I’m trying to post on the marketplace, but I can’t because I’m a (new) member I’m guessing. My question is how long before I can buy and post WTB?
I couldn’t find information on the wait period. I’m not totally new ig since I was a member on the defunct M3 forum.

Which ones aren't aligned? Is it the 4 RACP points or the RSM points? I’d definitely wait till the car is on the ground and loaded to work out what needs to be adjusted

I do need to check it again with everything in place, but it was the rear two holes. There was also a problem with the front two but I can't remember exactly what it was.

Mannnnn. The spacers are wrong, the holes are wrong, gotta love it.

I'm going to have to over drill the holes a little I think. I can't just force it over the threads on those bolts.

I don't have any photos of the spacers I received but basically exactly the same thing but thinner (same thickness as the hex).

Re fitment - mine was absolutely perfect. Did a check with the car in the air (without removing the nuts on the RSMs) and it seemed fine and then installed for real on the ground - dropped straight in. I have heard of others needing to apply some leverage to get fitment (rear strut bars in general, not Yurkan specifically) so maybe depends a bit on individual chassis and whether it's moved at all over time?

I think you’ll love it once you’re done - I couldn’t believe the amount of difference it made to my car.

Also I should clarify something, I don't actually have the brace installed and working yet. I have cut the studs though. I'm
actually curious if you guys had any fitment problems? I tried mocking it up on the car when the car is on quick jacks and the studs do not line up with the holes. I'm wondering if they will when the car is on the ground… 🤔
