One of the best days of my life! I had to pick up a shipment from USPS today. Guess what it was???
Yeah Baby! IT WAS THE SHIPMENT FROM UMNITZA!!! I finally got my M front bumper!
Well, I actually ordered the m-tech, but I guess everyone is getting the new M style replica with fogs! That's the one I prefer anyway!
When I spoke with Matt from Umnitza, I asked him for the dimensions of the box. He said he couldn't really describe it and it was difficult to measure. I was rather surprised that someone who deals with shipments on a daily basis wasn't able to simply quote me the box dimensions. Well, that's until I went to pickup the box. Actually, it's not a box. It's the most interestingly packed item I have ever, ever received! It's like 100 boxes taped together in a "squarish" shape. Needless to say, the packaging was awesome and the bumper is in great condition. Matt, sorry I ever doubted your ability to measure a box! I think Umnitza did a great job shipping this! They must have used a whole role of tape just piecing the boxes together!
I live in Canada and Umnitza can't ship here. So, I shipped it to member exx1976 in NY and drove over and picked it up. Member exx1976 is an awesome guy and I really appreciate his help here! If it wasn't for this forum, I would never have met him, and probably would never have this bumper. Thanks again Dude!
It was shipped to NY from California on Monday. So you guys from NY, hang in there. Your shipment should arrive in the next day or so.
I should be installing the bumper next week. Will definitely post pic's once it's installed.
