    It is, and apparently it’s pretty durable too. No damage.

    Well I got mine in the mail today. I ordered it Feb 28th, with Covid and a it being a pre order, I didn't mind the wait. For being an aftermarket product, I will give it a solid 8 out of 10. The finish is just about the same as factory. The only issue was lining up the top bolt with the spacer in place. So I left it out. With the bolt having a washer and it going in at an angle, it has enough bite on the plastic to be okay with out the spacer. Looks great and happy with the product.

    So no spacer and you still rate it an 8-10?! Wanna buy a bridge?

    Lol!! I didn't feel the spacer was necessary as the washer and the angle of the bolt against the plastic on the inner handle was sufficient. Kinda hard to explain, but it's sturdy and has zero movement.

    The person who designed it though it was necessary! But yeah, I get what you mean and know exactly what you're talking about. No troubles.

    Has anyone done this yet in this shit show of a thread.

    Seems like a better solution then bending the bracket.

    Looks like I got two matching bolts that both fit the clipnut. Not sure if they are M6 or M8, or if they are the long or short. Maybe I'll find out tomorrow if I get done with honey-do's.

    Since @brianktjo had been relieved of his duties here, maybe they can get a time machine and put him on quality control.

    If the time machine can travel back further, supplier management may be a better option.

    Well... that didn't last long. I wondered about how that was going to play out.
