Hello boys and girls, just throwing it out there that I just ordered the infamous RTR decklid for the 2013-2014 mustang from blowbyracing.com. They were able to get 33 of them out of a limited production run of 200. Not many left. Get on it!

Well you 13 and 14 guys are a bit lucky. You already have the black deck lid panel. 10-12 have the normal body colored ones, so it's more of a drastic change on those years.

I've seen one or two pictures of that very thing done. It looks good. I think I'd leave mine black personally, but for other colors it might look better as the body color or possibly white or silver if that's your secondary color theme.

I'm still on the fence. I'm 60/40 leaving it black to painting it Oxford white. I just want the damn thing. I ordered almost 3 months ago lol. There was a flub up in paint is what I'm hearing. They painted them then tried distributing them but some were rusting apparently. Gathered them all back and powder coated them.

Hey Guys-

We're merely days away from getting our shipment in from RTR-I'm going to bump this thread accordingly once they're ready to fly off the shelves! If anyone has any questions don't hesitate to let me know or shoot me a PM!

Still in pre-order status. Somewhere (not AM) said October 19th as the ship date. I could be wrong.

I think that RTR went under some corporate and warehouse changes as well, a lot of stuff all at once it seems.

Yeah, I believe that to be true as well, but damn lol. I heard somewhere that RTR had gone under, and some company overseas was going to start producing the parts and accessories. I just want some concrete, straight answers...

It really is BS. All they have listed is "will be shipped early October." Guess what? It's early October. We're almost a third of the way through it. A little information would pull a premium right about now. That's why I bumped the thread in hopes they'd respond

I got on a pre-order list through StangMods sometime in July and they told me beginning of August they would be shipping out. Went back and forth emailing and they kept saying couple weeks...couple weeks, and now were into October.. I'm not paying anyone until I see it's actually ready to buy and ship. This pre-order junk has me on the edge at this point.

Same here man, but I preordered through Blow By Racing because their FB page was the first company to offer preorders on it, and it was stated they'd be receiving them before anyone else. So I ordered that bish. 212$ I believe. Gone. And I have no product. I just want to know what the hell is going on. I'm glad you guys are responding because I want more people to stay on this until we get it! And I'll probably lose my mind if I get it and it's damaged....:(

Yeah I think a lot of people are aggravated and are looking for the same answer. Good to have this thread so everyone can figure out what's going on. Especially those who have already payed. I'll be emailing again tomorrow so hopefully I'll get some new info.

I check the internet everyday on various mustang sites looking for possible answers, and I get nothing. That's exactly why I bumped this. I don't know who to blame in this situation, I'd just like some answers. I've been in contact with blow by an while it's been cordial, I've gotten the "oh it'll be such and such a date." I just want the damn thing. I'll be putting the car away before long...

Damn sucks hearing this guys! Reading what you guys have said, it is all bs. Why say the decklids will be received at said month and they end up moving it farther; bad bad bad. Maybe something is up with RTR? Have any of you checked RTR if they have back orders or something?

This is why I don't like pre-ordering stuff. Just another thing I'm skeptical about. I would have waited till they were on sale. My 2¢

Hope you guys get your decklid sometime soon :thumb:

The only reason I preordered this thing under the pretenses I'd receive it at some point, is how damn rare this piece obviously is and sought after it is. I just hope we can all get som answers soon. I haven't tried contacting RTR directly but I hear the website or the sales division of it took a dump.

It's only rare because they haven't shipped any :p . I'd imagine the retailers are getting the same lack of information from RTR as you folks are.

I pre-order video games, not car parts lol.

Lol very true sir. But now it's so rare you can't get your damn hands on it lol. I would imagine the same thing, but that would be me just imagining. I could imagine in one hand and crap in the other, at this point, which one do you think would fill up first? Lol who knows what's going on, but I want answers. I demand them.

I meant that as, I'd never pay for a car part that's not ready to ship and full blown.

Just hope you guys don't get boned where their supply doesn't meet demand and goes on instant backorder after the first lot rolls out.

I don't know if it was on this thread or another, but I think someone said the logo can be removed. Maybe someone can verify that.

So it sounds like they'll be shipped on the 15th, the vendors SHOULD get them the 22nd the latest, and SHOULD be to our doors by the end of the month....I'm still not convinced, sadly lol. Hoss did you contact them directly? If so, I thank you.

2014oxstang, yes I did. The woman I spoke with, (Jess Albright), was very honest in saying she wasn't sure about a shipment date when I first contacted her back in Sept. She said she would inform me when they would be available, and she kept her word. I got that email from her on Oct. 2nd.

Well I suppose that's a positive we can take away from it. Thanks for doing that man I appreciate it. I just wish there was more contact between these vendors and RTR. At least a weekly update or something. This is especially aggravating because I've already paid yanno?

Funny story. Totally had a dream last night that I received the decklid. Now I know it's Saturday but, still went to the door to make sure. Of course it wasn't there. I want this thing so bad I'm dreaming about it lol. Thought I'd share

Anyone hear anything? Spoke to my contact at BBR today. He said they should be shipping them out by this Friday, October 17th. Doesn't hold much H2O with me at this point...I'm going to start referring to the Decklid as the "unicorn decklid"
