I read in his original thread that he installed the OEM bolt in place of a missing bolt from innovative. The OEM bolt was longer and he just cranked it in there.
I've uninstalled and reinstalled mine twice to switch out the bushings and haven't had that problem. This was simply an expensive case of user error.

Update:
I have had the Innovative 75A mounts installed for less than a year, some of it on the track. Recently I could tell that something was obviously wrong -- vibration and engine sag on the right side.
I decided to order some 65A bushes and try them out before going over to the Hardrace mounts. so today I took out the 75A bushes (blk) and replaced them with the red 65As. The 75a bushes were some POS crappy polyurethane pieces that totally sagged and ended up deformed and misshapen. No wonder my car was vibrating so much. BTW the 65A bushes are very much like the OEM Honda mounts as far as I can tell so far. JFYI Here are some pics of the 75a bushes that I removed: (click on the pics for a better view)
The pics are from the passenger (torque) side motor mount.
