Unfortunately the life span of our ceramic moulds for the carbon body kits had come to an end.
We at RTP have decided that it is no longer cost effective for us to invest in a new ceramic mould for a small market at such a low sales price hence we can no longer offer the fallowing products:
-Carbon C-Once Style lip
-Carbon TRD Style Skirts
-Carbon TRD Style rear spats

However we will continue to offer the same products in FRP and as always, the fitments is still perfect.

Those of you who where lucky enough to buy our past carbon kit, count your self lucky and look after your exclusive kit.

no as there is no mould for it.
Unless we have a number of people wanting a part and all prepared to pay for it at once, it's not worth us spending thousands on a mould just for 1 part.

Depressing, do you have any left in stock? i assume what u mean is a Group buy would be the only way to make them again say where 5-10 people want them and pre-pay for it.

Correct.
Having many people wishing or wanting to buy later in future simply isn't a viable business investment for us.
This is why we've opted not to invest in the mould no more.
I have had some people message me about buying in bulk and group buys. Weather that happens or not I'll leave it down to your selves and members of this club.
