    I’ve got a set I am going to be listing in the for sale section when I get chance to take some photos. Full set from creative carbon via Mike, including bonnet vents as well.

    Minimum 3-4 months when asked rainbird. The company that make them, do it basickly as a sidejob, so not a priority....

    2 years and 1 day for me

    Its not Mikes fault, but the wait will me much longer, much.

    I really dont know how creative carbon can run a business with such a massive and elastic lead time.

    I've no idea if R and B are still operating, but they were made at creative carbon iirc.

    Doesent matter if carbon or fiberglass, aslong as fit is close to "perfect"

    I had a set of Carbon ones on mine, spent a fortune, the first time out with them on hit a speed bump and the splitter shattered, I've got the OEM one on now thats been carbon wrapped, which is a bit more forgiving.

    Is r&b still the best place?

    Mines came through R and B, the hockey sticks didn't fit the front bumper that well IMO, I had to sand/re-profile them before fitting. The finish was OK though but like Dan's, this was a few years ago when the lead times were not as long.

    My first set of splitters had to be returned to creative carbon as the carbon weave was dodgy in places.
    To be fair Mike sorted it all for me and was spot on, this was many years ago though when time scales were much better.

    Frankly i would have been embarrassed to supply anything in the state these arrived. The finish was like sandpaper, so much grit underneath plus finger prints in the lacquer right in the middle.

    The corners didn't have any carbon in them, just clear resin so you could see right through and my wolf spoiler had the same issues. Rapid Ford did their best to sort it out but Marcus at Creative Carbon makes MK motorsport delays and delivery times look acceptable.

    Personally i think the guys a prick and would advise you to look elsewhere!

    I think there is a guy in Greece doing them and the pictures i saw quality looked really good but didn't have them in my hand to say for sure. Will hunt to try and find who it was, have it saved somewhere!
    Not to protect anybody, but the time when I bought my one with rapid ford, the same people you are talking with now I suppose, was in 2013..

    probably something change?
