Did surf the UMI website after someone threw up a link to it in a thread. Have seen and surfed most of the sponsoring sites and they all seem to have desirable merchandise BUT, for those of us from upstate North America, getting stuff shipped over the border has become a brutal miserable time consuming exercise. Cross border travel for the purpose of picking up parts and components waiting at the local US drop point is VERBOTEN, TABOO, DENIED. mostly because of this business of "essential" and "non-essential". For me classified as being Non-essential as I have been, making an order from an American Supplier has become a risky proposition. Even if they will use USPS the parcels get delayed for "customs" inspection, which usually means they get stuck in front of a drug sniffing dog who'd probably much rather be sniffing some b****'* b*tt than having to climb all over skid after skid of boxes parcels and packages in search of that bad ol' candy powder.
I did pull the trigger and buy that shock bracket frame brace that UMI offers for G-bodies. I did recieve it today and I do like the finish. The fit has yet to be judged simply because I need to get the rear end re-assembled before I can move on to mounting that bracket.
I do personally happen to agree that Boob-tube and Farce-book are the self serving refuges of the sophmoric but hey, they do need to be stashed somewhere......................plus which even Bob-tube does offer some interesting clips; you just need to wade through a montrous amount of useless hair to find them.
