Honestly either brand will work very well, if you decide you want some BMR parts shoot me a PM or give give me a call at the shop and I can get you some pricing.

I personally use MWC for all of my suspension pieces, but both are reputable companies and you would be happy with either.

I have been very pleased with UMI and Ryan always goes the extra Mile to make sure if any issues arise they are fixed, at least in my situation it was handled very prompt and fast.

Everything on my car is UMI and it's all worked great. But, BMR is also a great company if you want to go that route; both have good customer support and good parts.

I've heard great things about both companies but I personally went with Global West for my parts. I got their Torque Arm, the relocation mount for it, LCA's, and LCA relocation brackets. Their stuff is really nice in my opinion and I really like their Torque Arm setup. Although I just got my on car adjustable Panhard Bar from UMI this past Friday and it looks great.

I was always curious if there was once a connetion of some kind between the two companies. Quite the coincidence... two companies selling similar parts, both with three letter names...

It's amazing isn't it?!???!?!?!? Kind of like the USA and the UAE, they're both countries and three letter names (and share a common word in their acronym!)
