If your bar came with M3 brackets, I would think the M3 bushings would fit? Good luck.

That's wrong. The stock bar has the bushings physically fused to the bar by design. The bar physically cannot rotate freely with the bushings fused. It is designed to bind, which is rather common with most cars now. (Focus ST rear bar is another example off the top of my head).
