Only thing I can think of is your air box different? That looks like a Forge box they have it fitted over. May not be an issue, but something to ask maybe.

Andy has a point... the JCW Strut curves around the factory airbox with only few mm clearance.

Greig dont see any problems the airbox on JCW and S is in the same place and looks about the same size

The airbox is bigger in the JCW mate. This part is under the bonnet hence the section but if you think it sits better in the suspension section fill yer boots.
