A few people reported using 1mm spacers on their LCAs, but most (including myself) did not.

The tension struts/thrust arms do require spacers since the bushing is more narrow on the F80 part.

This post has the specs for those spacers, and the thread has a lot of good info.

Did you install yourself or pay someone to do it? How much did it cost (labor)?
I gave it SpeedSport Tuning in CT, they charged 1hr/side + alignment which was around 400 with tax. I had a track day a week later and wanted it ready, but I don't think I would have DIY'd it even if I hadn't. You can see the before and after alignment specs in my earlier post. My foreman told me they needed to adjust it before they even could get it on the rack correctly.
