    This is some pretty big news from two of the larger BMW parts vendors.

      More racing monies for Turner, I'm down. Sucks to see them having to run customer cars this year

        I trust ECS will handle things well. Two awesome companies, and ECS ranks currently as my go to for Audi parts.

              Wow that's a rather big deal. I love both shops for parts. Hate to see it combine and lose competition but if it helps Turner in racing then it's worth it. They're a great team.

                Maybe turner stuff will finally be cheaper.


                I use ECS for everything now.

                  Thought both of them were always over priced. Will they combine to have even higher prices?

                    ECS is always a cheaper option even for bmw brand parts. And they photograph even nuts a bolts like 5 or 6 times. Its a great site

                        All offer pricing better than...

                        In my time with the VW scene.. ECS was the same.

                        They certainly have a nice website. And i can always use their pictures.. or those from RealOEM.

                          ECS always has had good product imaging. Turner no so much.

                          That said I was not pleased with ECS shipping rates or customer service. Maybe that has changed.

                          Turner was better at customer service. BMP's customer service sux!

                          All this said, pound for pound, Blunttech is by far the industry leader in my opinion. High quality customer service (5 Stars) and product that works every time because he takes the time to do it right!
