      I received tracking today. Hopefully others did as well.

      It isn't like they were going to run off with our money.

        Received mine on Friday and fitted yesterday. Thanks again for doing a run for the M42's I've been looking for a strut brace in this style that fit's for some time. I'll post a pic shortly too

                Thanks! I had a feeling that bar in red would add a really nice touch.

                    Yea just about, maybe a little more, 5/8-3/4 inch, but its Plenty. Its alot closer to the plastic cover behind it, less than a 1/4inch.

                    Did some "tests" after I installed it and theres no signs of any clearance/rubbing issues!

                      Also, you are a cock with tacky taste.

                      That is all.

                              They did contact me to confirm I was ok with them using it.

                              Which I am!

                                received and installed. Looks great.
                                One note: I had to remove the bracket that grabs/holds the accelerator cable because it interfered with the strut bar. (This is for M42 / 318is)
