Item arrived exactly as described. It fits perfectly in my 2006 E90 330i sedan with the sport package. Even the stock dust cap fits, albeit a little tight. I've been using it in the car for a few months and so far so good. It replaced my stock strut mount which was making bearing noise when going over bumps. The noise ranged from a slight metallic screech to a dull thud, depending on the size of the bump in the road I was driving.
