As with everything we do here at BMR, we strive to improve.

This product has been a great success, but that doesn't mean we shall just leave it be.

The current CB005 are somewhat labor intensive. The front brackets feature a front mounting point that is a 3-pc design, and then welded on our fixtures.

To speed up production, improve quality, and eventually shoot for lower price points - we will be implementing a change to the front mounts.

The new pieces will feature a 1-pc Billet Steel CNC Machined front mount.







Just figured I would share!

Thanks to everyone who supports our operation!
When will the new version be available to order? So this new front front mount will not tie in the 2 smaller bolts that are on the current front mount? If that makes sense.

No, what he means is that what is currently 3 pieces (two of which are welded together), will be one. See here. 1&2 are welded together, 3 is a separate piece going between the cradle and the front mount.

No worries guys, this does not change the performance of the product one bit.

It's just a nice feature to be able to claim that ours has over the replicas out there, and helps us build them more efficiently. And hopefully cut costs!

I guess you never made it to the office lol
lol, You were literally the next one. Slowly but surely catching up on them. :headbang:

Scheduled Delivery Updated To: Tuesday, 05/31/2016, By End of Day CB006 will be in your hands Tuesday according to UPS.


As for the 3/4" drop with SW....I really have no idea. I don't think it will be an issue, but I could be wrong.


I know we have 1/2" dropped engine with ARH Longtubes and all is well. And my car had 1/2" drop with Borla LT and fine. :cheers:

So they copy them and sell them next to the original for the same price.... They probably feel that their SR line has a following from their naive customers that don't do their own research...

Installation pics.

I finally installed my BMR CB005 kit after sitting on my dining room table for weeks. Thought it was going to be tougher than it was.

Comes with almost step by step instructions. (Misses rear piece install but shows image 4, just no reference to it. Self explanatory for the most part.

Raise, support and remove wheel.

Front OEM Bracket to be removed.
