Default JDM Header bracket is cracked

I was under the car doing an oil change today and noticed a crack in the bracket that supports the bottom of the header. It is not cracked the whole way through yet, but it is gonna break soon. Anyone else have this problem?

Ya, i used a longer bolt too. The crack starts a couple mm below the bolt holes and is about 1" long. I am kinda pissed that i paid $45 for the bracket and it didn't even last a year.
