So this was ordered before I got my hands on the stock X3/4m lower brace and was backordered for about a month from Ultra racing... So much easier to install... oh well.

Hey, what collar are you talking about? Is this like a plastic sleeve thing? Sorry for the dumb question.

And do you have the rear lower 2 pt bar? The one that goes about right above the muffler?

Yes I have the rear installed also.

For my install the metal collar lip in the last pic on the front bar itself was larger than the hole in the subframe where the bolt goes through was a tad larger, but nothing a little grinding to it and some paint to prevent rust.

Good to know! Wonder if they'll "redesign" the part to fix that.

The won't change the design of the bar, it may have been a thicker roll of the lip on mine.

Front lower bar is on back order 2-3 months. Aleks finally got back to me yesterday. He said the rear lower and mid are in stock just FYI.
