BMR 2pointStrutTowerBrace navy blue

as the title says,
2point STB navy blue powder coated
by BMR.

it's a good used piece, but been used only for 3month or so.

reason being is that this piece of shi_t didnt fit my v6 right,
so I had to drill some holes.
I got it in but because of the angle issue,
I could only tighten up 2bolts, and the other 2holes I could do nothing about.
plus its not directly connecting my strut mount(its like on the side of it)
so i think it gives almost no effect in my ride.

anyways no crack or bend in this STB, little black spot(probably by heat)
near the middle, but absolutely not noticable from 1feet away.

color is navy blue, will look good on blue/green cars.

it's 120$ brand new,
i donno how much i want for it.. make me offers, thanks!

*Im located in CA, but shipping shouldnt be much anywhere in US*

I drilled a hole "to my body",
not to the braces.

unless u have a v6, I believe u dont need to drill holes like i did,
should be a direct fit.

kretos whats ur zipcode?

dude i think you did something wrong, the geometry of the strut towers should be the same between v8 and v6 cars... unless an engine component prevented the fitament.

oh and btw you skipped me.

didnt mean to skip u.. srry
but when i said i only drilled hole to my car body,
i was answering u.

anyways my a/c compressor gets in contact with this brace when
installed, and some line(vacuum line i think) touches it too.
with all my trans/engine mounst being new, but engine still moves,
and my a/c compressor was little damaged from the tower brace.(its not touching each other when the engin is still, but I guess when its running
it could have been clunking each other)
btu there's no damage to the brace from that.

before i do further damage to my brand new compressor
i just wanna sell it.
i believe there is some difference in clearance and possibly angle issues
between v6 and v8,
thats why something isnt right on mine.
BMR did tell me I need to drill hole if i had a 6, but not on 8.
so unless this guy was a noob, there is at least a bit of difference.
----------
like without bolting anything,
the angle of the edge of the brace doesnt even match
with the angle of my body near the strut cover, at all.
