BMR Strut tower brace...are there any issues??
 
I was looking to purchase the BMR Strut Tower Brace and while looking at the info it says it will clear if you have the plenum cover. Are there anyone running with this and if so, do they have any clearance issues with the fitting or even with the hood?? Just want to make sure before I click the purchase button. Thanks in advance.

How much $ is the BMR?

For a second option, I just bought the Bullitt strut brace and it clears the engine cover, Ford ebay guy with great service http://stores.ebay.com/ClevengerPart...QQftidZ2QQtZkm

They are not painted...but you could paint them yourselves. Maybe another project in my future.

I have the BMR Strut Tower Brace but don't use it. When I installed it I noticed that the Brace seems to touch the sound insulation material when closing the hood.

Too bad you live in Finland, I'd say I'd take it off your hands for you.[8D]

I had to paint it myself, my first attempt didn't work out like I wanted
