Had gotten some messages about the harness bar and mounting...and we were installing another one in another 135i (you'll notice from the interior pics it's not our interior), so shot some quick pics of the rear shock tower mount, and how we did two things...one, made it completely bolt in w existing BMW factory mounting points, and two, made the bolt in flange such that if any twisting or force from the downbars was input, the bottom edge of the flange would bind against the buldhead base so that the bolts are not taking the torsional energy.
As stated, we had now tested on the street and the track, and indeed are getting the torsional twist benefit to allow the whole suspension to be tuned better for specific conditions...look for this bar in some other 135i soon, as we are installing them and shipping them.
