Mikey Thompson Posted January 28, 2016 Posted January 28, 2016 As the title really, anyone have one or know where I can now get them? Thanks in advance, Mikey Quote

Payco Posted January 28, 2016 Posted January 28, 2016 RT Performance. Pro Trader on here is where most of us have purchased and have it fitted by. Top place. Quote
Jay Kay Posted January 28, 2016 Posted January 28, 2016 I'd buy one if they had a UK number plate hole. I've seen one on youtube, but assume that may have been moddified by the owner to take the longer plate? Quote

I've seen one on youtube, but assume that may have been moddified by the owner to take the longer plate? Same for me, I love the chargespeed but hate the jdm plate recess. I'd buy one otherwise. 1 Quote
Jay Kay Posted January 28, 2016 Posted January 28, 2016 I had been looking out for a cheap UK rear bumper to cut the plate reccess out of and have added to the Cs bumper but can't find one cheap enough Sent from my HTC One using Tapatalk Quote
Payco Posted January 28, 2016 Posted January 28, 2016 (edited) It's really not that bad. The look of the bumper outweighs the plate issue. If you are that bothered contact Taras at RT Performance and discuss your requirements. He can do a lot with fibreglass as he did for me below with my chargespeed.

ZEUS Posted January 28, 2016 Posted January 28, 2016 It's really not that bad. The look of the bumper outweighs the plate issue. I've wanted one for a few years but for me it's a deal breaker. Quote
Jay Kay Posted January 28, 2016 Posted January 28, 2016 It can be done, plastic welding etc is possible by someone who knows what they are doing. Sent from my HTC One using Tapatalk Quote

mouthwash Posted January 28, 2016 Posted January 28, 2016 RT Performance. where most of us have purchased and have it fitted by. Is that true? Do you have figures or have you just made it up? 3 Quote
saint Posted January 28, 2016 Posted January 28, 2016 (edited) I also want a UK plate recess, maybe we should use mob-rule and have a mold of the UK recess made or something along those lines? My excuse is that my plate makes the word BOOST on one line, but on two it'd be BOOS I guess I could cram 5 letters on one line but then the rozzers would pull me every few days...

Jetpilot Posted January 28, 2016 Posted January 28, 2016 (edited) As per Cascade, keep your eye on Amazon, better to buy the original, Rt allow and quote for 2 days to fit theirs, so make sure you allow for that in your budget if you go down the replica route.

taras Posted January 28, 2016 Posted January 28, 2016 Hey guys, we still make those but only to go with JDM size plate. If we get 6-8 people interested we can possibly start making them for UK numberplate. Fitting time is down to a bodyshop - we make them looking "factory fitted". Once fitted a genuine chargespeed for a member here and had to spend more time than with our copies PM me for prices if you want one soon! Taras. 1 Quote
ZEUS Posted January 28, 2016 Posted January 28, 2016 Well I'd be up for one but only if you get enough interest to do uk plate recess and price dependant of course Quote
Mopedmark Posted January 28, 2016 Posted January 28, 2016 I'm thinking of buying one then making a fibreglass mould of the uk number plate recess then cut and shutting it all together along with a few more one offs, as usual Quote

ZEUS Posted January 28, 2016 Posted January 28, 2016 Got my wings to customise first Ooh sounds interesting. Quote

Mikey Thompson Posted January 29, 2016 Author Posted January 29, 2016 I think tarmac can still source these mate Sent from my D6603 using Tapatalk Spoke to them mate and they've discontinued them. A guy has messaged me saying he has an RT one that he's never fitted at a good price but collection only. Other than him I think it's going to have to be direct from RT 👠Quote
