That, I know. But "txyaloo" indicated that ECS was "bought out" at one point, which I am not aware of. Therefore, my inquisite mind got curious.

I mean, technically probably correct. They sold a big interest to PE. It all depends on your definition of “bought out.”

I actually order everything through pelican parts for my M5 and X5. FCP takes forever and ECS packages their parts like crap so things constantly break. Literally everything I've bought through Pelican parts has been packaged extremely well and has shipped super quickly.

Do they also offer lifetime replacement warranty like FCPEURO?

Never had a problem with ECS.

Because the supply chain is so messed up, the new normal is delivery times are quite often missed. It can be because of lack of material or labor at the mfg. or during shipping to the place of purchase.

Always been fine for me... but the lion's share of my car part orders are through FCP.

Correct - that's what I meant by being "bought out". PE "investment" changes everything.
