So when my brother smashed the front of his (my old) clubman a new front apron was in order... Now that this
new apron has been welded on there is a 30mm gap between the front of the subframe and the new apron
where the front apron bolts the the subframe.. Any one know why this is or why this could be?

This is the new front apron and no that is not me in the pic
