I have had first experience with both parts and manufacture . As I will say and many other happy customers on the boards will say is Revinora and other NON-CHINA MADE BRANDS are quality made and worth the wait and money
Not sure about mode carbon's quality as I have never seen the product first hand. Adding to the Revinora comment, you can tell its 100% carbon fiber and was hand made. There were delays in the process but the owner was up front and kept an open line of communication. I got the feeling the parts are made to order more or less vs. a mass production type of item. Hard to explain but you could almost smell it coming out of the box? Like they had just finished it, wrapped it up and shipped it to you. When you first place it to the bumper it doesn't look like its going to fit properly. Once you start applying screws in the right spot the piece flexes right in place.
