Hey, I want to buy the replica m5/mtech bodykit soon. I just want to know if there is any differences (in quality, fitment, etc.) between umnitza and trinity. I know they both sold many bumpers to several people on the forum. Umnitza is selling there kit for $850 shipped (w/ mtech rear bumper) and Trinity is selling each bumper for $349 plus shipping and $199 for the side skirts plus shipping; which is more than what Umnitza is selling it for. Thanks for your opinions.

I had thought they were from the same manufacturer but just being sold from different vendors.

Do you expect to get the exact same price for the same optioned BMW at two different dealers? HAHAHA

Rhetorical question, I know.

I went with UMNITZA, I had a problem with one of the bumpers and they are taking care of it! I look forward to doing business with them in the future their prices are good and fair to work with!
