I searched through multiple pages and could not find the original thread and the search was of no help at all. I know awhile ago there were some issues with the BMR K members and fitment problems. Have those issues been resolved to anyone's knowledge?

I would say no based on the information posted on the last page.

Unless BMR can tell you that they have not only fixed the fitment issues but also built in some adjustment I'd look elsewhere.

I can’t believe anybody is still even remotely interested in this nonsense.

What a disaster.

I wish Steeda would do another run of theirs.

Yup.
It sure did turn out to be another sad story..and after BMR had and took their time to design one.

They could have crushed it...

BMR hasn't responded with anything.

What is shocking to me about the whole situation is BMR didn't fix the issue on the mounting points so it can be properly squared to the car.

According to 01yellercobra on page 12 of the thread I linked they fixed some of the other issues but simply elongated the rear mounting points. That's a crime in my eyes.

You're 100% correct, they could have crushed this market. It's a damn shame especially at that price point.

I want to bump it just to remind people how much of a circus the BMR K-Member has been, solely in hopes of steering people away from it. I previously re-posted several images pointing out clear design flaws (there were multiple) on it. Considering these design flaws, their documented fitment issues, and other intangibles like slow responsiveness and unfriendly customer service in my experience, I would hope no one considers these for purchase.

Additional considerations not to buy this K-Member:
1. They had years to develop this product and bring something solid to the market. Our chasis are not new and K-Members have been around for years for these cars. They were the last to the market and should have the most developed and best design. However, this couldn't be further from reality.

2. They took nearly four years to develop the Premium K-Member - and it still sucked.

With all this said, I'd rather throw a UPR K-Member on my car before one of these. At least you know what you get, you know it's tried, true, and fits. The BMR K-Member launch has been beyond disappointing.
