Measuring the height is not ridiculous. There will indeed be a gap in the middle where the top and bottom part clamp on the subframe. But this should only be something like 2 mm. So this is not making up for the 2 cm difference in the total height. As a result the guide plate at the bottom will be bolted up too far and bend, which is clearly visible in Ajamesc's picture.


If other people are happy putting this on their car it doesn't bother me. But in my opinion it is not designed correctly so I am not putting it on my car. Mark has offered me a refund which is very decent of him, so I am happy too. I will leave it at this as we clearly have different opinions on what is a good design and what is not.
