RTR preorder

[OxfordPP]

So I was browsing americanmuscle.com earlier and saw the RTR diffuser, rocker splitter and grille are up for preorder now. I also noticed the grille is missing the diffused LED's. All that waiting for a bit of a disappointment. Especially at $450 for the upper and lower combo. Rear diffuser is $400 and rocker splitters are $300. Not sure if I'll be ordering any of this now but I figured there would be someone on here that would like to know there is some new info available.

Wow. What the fuck. Everything is terribly overpriced. I was excited for the new '15 parts to come out too. $300 for two flat pieces of plastic called splitters? $400 for a diffuser that is only slightly different than what GT Premiums have now? And like you said, where is the grille with the LED strips? This is truly a let down.

Edit: Looks like the side splitters inlcude the rear as well, so it isn't AS bad as what I was thinking but still a little overpriced IMO.

So a side skirt under our existing black side skirt? Eh, not for me. I had the roush side skirts and rear pieces on my 14 and liked them, but not feeling it on the new ones since they already have them. Just my .02

I've been feeling the same. Same reason why I haven't been 100% on buying a front splitter yet either. I can't get around the stacked "splitter on splitter" look.

I like the diffuser but I don't think I can justify $400 for that.

no decklid panel :(

i would advise to see all the 15 rtr parts in person before you make a decision. the test car they had the quality was so bad on it. it was already dry cracking and splitting on all the parts... hope it was just prototype quality but it looked awful.

Totally agree, I think the double splitter is really bad looking. Kinda like a double chin on a fat guy.

Yep, saw the same thing. A lot of money to pay that has a very little visual difference from stock.

Like everybody, I was expecting the grille with the lighted corners. Very disappointed in their offerings...

[FONT=&quot]Hey Guys - Form what I'm hearing RTR is continuing to work on the other products you've seen on the prototype cars. As soon as those products are in production and ready to ship you guys will be the first to know!

Hey guys - I just wanted to drop back in and reassure everyone that their parts are top notch They've been bringing out some solid gear over the past year along with overhauling their existing line up. They recently had some issues with their 10-14 Decklid panels and went back to the drawing board with their manufacturing process to ensure a perfect product.

In regards to the parts on the cars, they were prototypes and I saw them too and RTR would never bring a part out like that! Not to mention they're definitely going to have a little wear and tear with how JR drives. They were 100% not a finished/complete product and we're rapid prototypes.

I think the Splitters are pretty cool and the pictures don't really do them much justice. Once you see them on an S550 They're insanely popular on 10-14's either Roush' or RTR - Give it time, take a look and I promise they'll grow on you. They're sick.

Another plus is that in comparison to a traditional side skirt or even a body kit they'd need to be prepped, painted, etc which would cost leaps and bounds more than theirs which go on in a pinch.

And don't worry about the LED Grille because It's coming!

unimpressed by the products they released. we need game changing shit. not just another mesh grill that utilizes stock parts.

 

[DrunkMonkey]

i spoke with rtr and they are still bringing the other parts as well. they just arnt ready yet, should be before the end of the year............

 

[Calabaza]

Wow . I just saw the Grille on American Muscle. They have to have an LED option . I Understand the manufacturing has to be good it needs to be unique to compete.Anybody can make a mesh grille. I have been looking forward to that grille since i saw it last year before i even own my 2015
