For your information,
if you're thinking about upgrading the bulk head, you will also need to change as well as the shock towers. (both front&rear)
In order to reinforce the bulk head, they're 2mm taller than the original bulk head. To offset this change, shock mounting holes on the shock tower have been lowered 2mm . (2mm raised up bulk head - 2mm lowered shock tower holes = same height)

Therefore, if you change only the bulk heads to the new TC bulk heads, upper shock mounting position will be 2mm higher. (You will need longer shock length to reach the mounting holes)
This will change the piton position in the shock cylinder at the car sitting 1G, I highly suggest you to have the new shock towers as well.

Thanks,
