I recently got an Eclips3d kit, and so far through the assembly the only issue I've noticed is that plate B3 is a little too thin for the screws used to make the motor fit flush with it, and to make the plate fit flush with the frame. I was able to alleviate this issue with 1mm shims, so the issue isn't drastic at all, but I felt it deserved reporting. Were you using m5x8 or m5x10 bolts?

I went back and looked back at the bolts, measured them, saw they were 10mm long, and upon reinvestigation I saw that the bags ended up having the writing on them smudged off in such a way during the process of opening them that I misread them. EDIT: It seems that deleting the main post won't remove the thread. Well. It still stands that D1 (M3x8) doesn't affix the motor onto the plate fully, but this very well may be because I have a differing motor than the one specified on the BOM.

Ah ok glad you sorted that out, and yes if you have motors different than the BOM this may happen, some motors have much shorter threads for mounting. You can either use some bolt or wire cutters to trim down existing m3x8mm bolts or just purchase new shorter bolts (m3x6mm should suffice!)
