Default UMI Performance SFC's

I e-mailed UMI a few days ago and they just replied that their new vert sub frame connectors will be released end of Jan. or early Feb.

The design we are working on now will be tubular. Round tubing allows more bending options and allows us to make a better fitting SFC, they will also tuck up much tighter and follow the floor contour better then boxed tubing.

I have decided to go the true dual route...are these going to be in the way? Am I better off with a BMR style to allow for the exhaust to be tucked up tighter?

Getting close to mid-February, anyone know where they are? I checked the site and I don't see a convertible listing on the subframes.
