yea i can only speak for the sides, since my m-tech front is OEM but the sides do look like they will fit nicely. should have them on by next week as soon as paint is done

cant beat umnitza's prices so as long as the fitment is good thats really all that matters

i've been holding out on buying the umnitza kit because a few body shops i spoke to are intrigue/skeptical of fitment and painting of replicas. but it looks pretty good from your pics! please keep us posted on the whole process including pics of the finish product. thanks in advance.

So how does the material feel? Are the side-skirts stiff or are they flexible?

The material is very flexible! I gave it a few twists to check if it would be prone to cracking and unless ur gonna hit it or bend it directly on the lip that flares out its not cracking.

Flexible but durable material it seems like a well made and we'll see how fitment goes in a few days I will keep you updated!

my dealership has an autobody shop brought it to them. im near the nassau/suffolk boarder on the suffolk side. my dealership is called habberstad BMW. The body shop is located in huntington village. anyway its an easy job i'm sure any body shop with a decent rep will do it nicely.
