I want one also, black would be nice, i've been looking for one, but only came across aluminum ones...

CF would be even better! It's kinda strange nobody has them in CF. Light and sexy, yet easy to manufacture (flat)

...and prone for cracks, chips, etc.

Our plates are powdercoated and will not rust, fade, or chip. Other plates that are anodized black, tend to brown and chalk up over time. Salt and UV light is really bad for those designs.

Our hardware is also flush to the front of the plate and Powder coated. I think it's the only design out there that utilizes a flat head anti-theft screw too!

cracks and rocks... okay.

but then again, what about CF splitters? aero pieces? I've seen alot of them in CF, yet they hang way closer to the ground than bumper plates.

If I had to choose, i'd go with CF, personally. Just call it "customer input"

If production is started, i'm assuming 1-2 weeks ETA?

Standard lead time for any production run is usually 2-3 weeks, if everythng goes as planned. I'm pressing my guys to get this rolling asap, but they have other projects in the que. Powder coating is an additional manufacturing step and vendor and usually takes a week, sometimes less.

I'm hoping to have these avaiable before the 4th of July!
