How did you tackle that?
Thanks,

Used the same level clamp that was used with original lower control arm.
M3 arm is thicker so it would not reach all the way around. So i got some stainless steel cable ties to fix it in place.
Also original arm had 2 notches that kept that clamp from sliding on the arm. To fix that we grinded a little slot into the arm to imitate those notches.
If you google "slightly fettled z4" you will find a e89 forum thread on Pistonheads with pictures partcodes and everything.
Has pictures of that clamp aswell.
And people have used ordinary cable ties to do that. But i know with time those can get brittle and break. So i went with stainless steel cable ties to be sure.
