RB Sway Bar Hitting

So I installed my Racing beat rear sway bear with the adjustable endlinds. Yes I've searched but I haven't found anyone with my problem. Stock suspension for the rest of it right now aside from front sway which is also RB. Whenever I hit a bump The bar hits where I've circled in the pictures. There's small dents now and I've barely driven it because of this, just around the block to see if everything was okay and it's not. The endlinks are as short as they can go and it still hits. And sorry the pictures aren't the best they were blind shots as the cars no longer on stands because my parents needed the garage/driveway. I can get better ones tomorrow morning.

Is your car lowered? Which adjustable end links are you using, Racing Beat's or from someone else?

Stock ride height right now (assuming it hasn't dropped due to age, 150,000 km) and the racing beat adjustables. S5 N/A if that matters as well.

you might have it upside down.
I put my supention technic rear sway in and I almost put it in upside down backwards and it wouldnt bolt down right.
have you tryed to put it in a different way? switch it around
they all differ in some ways.
mine looked like it would go in one way but it actually went the other way.
I almost didnt think it was going to fit untill i swaped it around
