It is the same bumper and I wouldn't get a lip for the m5tech, the only kind that is made for that bumper is the hamman lip style and it is extremely too low. If they ever come out with a Hartge style lip which they probably won't, then it'd be more functional.

If the mtech rep is the exact size as the OEM then there should be a Hartge rep lip but it's from Thailand though or somewhere in Asia since some members here bought it through a group buy awhile back. I'm sure they'll chime in.

Yes there is a Hartge lip for the mtech bumper, not for the M5tech bumper though.

They get the M5tech bumper from the same manufacturer so I highly doubt it. Maybe you just got a bad bumper then? lol

I've bought a few things from them with good experiences, someone else on the forum ordered a part from them and had it sitting around in their closet for months. That person later decided he didn't want it and Umnitza helped that person find another buy for the product since the date of return had been long exceeded. Essentially he took money out of his own pocket by not making an extra sale and helped this person get rid of the item. I'm not sure how that is bad customer relations but ok.
As far as products being thumbs down he gets his products the same place as everyone else gets their products, he doesn't manufacture parts so not sure what that meant.

Strong comment... Please share you personal experience. I have contacted them via M5tech bumper and sides and they have been great so far so has their prices.

I've been here long enough to hear and experience both sides. I've dealt with Umnitza on their M5tech kit and Orion V2s and both products were shipped quickly and the quality of the product exceeded my expectations. With that said, I've also had complaints about service and assistance with installation. To each their own.

Back on topic: Only way to find out is to contact Umnitza. I have not seen any threads nor any pics that show the Umnitza m-tech rep with a lip.
