[QUOTE="cidsamuth, post: 16276894, member: 110091"] Sorry to hear that. I'm not sure why properly torqueing the front bolt to 139 lbs would warp anything even if the boss is smaller than the hole in the body of the car. But, I will repeat that I was unable to make the BMR 05-09 mount work because the back holes were off. I didn't try to order another, just put the OEM mount back in with the BMR UCA. Note, one of my BMR relocation brackets was a little off also, but it was close enough that I could make it work with some effort. I spent an hour+ on my back this morning re-torqueing everything, only to find at the end that the top shock bolt (in the trunk) on the right side had backed out considerably (I had done Pedders coilover setup at the same time I installed the BMR stuff). Torqued it down, and my clunk seems to be gone. Confirmed again that I have no clunk on hard acceleration and shifting with my 05-09 UCA paired with the OEM mount -- despite everyone saying it would. I'll probably still upgrade to the 2011+ mount and UCA at some point before the car goes into winter storage, but I don't see it as a priority now. Perhaps, given all your trouble, just upgrading to the 2011+ stuff would be the right move, as the boss will be big enough to fill that hole. [/QUOTE]
