Appreciate the concern. One out at a time, with retorquing to factory spec should be a fine approach IMO.
I did think that taking out all 4 wouldn't be a problem, but I'll likely just do it on a weekend I don't need the SUV at all and take my time.
In the F80/F82/F87 the CF strut bar is one huge piece connecting basically at four points of contact from windshield corners to radiator mount corners. I've had it in/out of the engine bay multiple times now, and the car hasn't ever loosened up or felt any different.
I'd wager almost every mile on her so far has been more strenuous than 90% of the lifetime miles any of these G05s will see.
