I'm still flip-flopping on what I want to do about the subframe mount reinforcement. A recent thread on M3forums.net showed another failure with the reinforcement plates.
Since I'm not dailying the car and I don't really need a ton of trunk space, I'm thinking about the Mason X - brace combined with a the structural foam upfront.

Kind of sad that a torqueless NA inline 6 causes this chassis so much grief.
