Could anyone with the mounting bracket for their Gruppe M intake provide dimensions? I would love to get one fabricated.

Got an "FEQ" wheel bearing as part of a free stash of parts someone was giving away on kijiji. My current bearings are original at 345,000 km and are still fine, but at some point I'll have to do them - does anyone know if these FEQ brand are good quality?

No experience with FEQ, but I tend to avoid it if it's made in China.
There is a thread on nam3forum about driveshafts, but the thread sidetracked to half-shafts and a member reported disappointing results with FEQ (and another Chiense brand, if I recall correctly).
Maybe not worth the hassle of doing the job twice.

Hmmm yeah when the time comes I'll spring for an FAG hub/bearing assembly. On first impressions it seems like a quality part, but who knows, the bearing could blow after 10 or 20,000 kms

You definitely do not want China bearings.

That FEQ looks decent to me. If I see a stamped ABS ring on the wheel bearing, I consider it cheap, but if it is cast, I would run it. I'd buy it off you if shipping from Canada wasn't so expensive.
