Just thinking out loud here. Food for Thought.
1) Have you tried dis-assembling the unit, mounting the strut-tower (blue) pieces loosely, re-installing the cross member (silver bar) and then torquing all to spec. ? 2) have you jacked up the car so no wgt. is on the front suspension, thus relaxing the uni-body during installation. I've heard some strut bar manufacturers suggest this technique so it's bolted up with the car un-stressed by it's own weight. Good Luck!
