I have them on order.
I don't have any word on when they'll ship, or when I'll see 'em, but I kinda expect to see 'em pretty close to August 1. Not ideal, but if that holds my review will include two days of HPDE at Laguna Seca and a BMW club autocross wrapped in a 1k mile road trip: San Diego to Monterey and back.

Voorslag is pushing back the release of these plates another 2 weeks because of a setback.

super disappointed these are delayed again but such is life. Id rather wait longer and get a finished product than have my >500$ plates turn out like Dinan/GC and get pulled weeks later.
Speaking of the $500, I find it very strange that HP Autosport has charged my credit card the full amount even though they have yet to ship, and now they are delayed even longer. I don't enjoy having such a large charge on my card without having the product. Maybe I'm just used to amazon. Anyway, as long I get them before Sept 9 for my track day I don't really mind! |

Our system treats Paypal and CC the same, once the order has been placed the form of payment is charged. We did not anticipate further delays thus the full purchase price instead of just a deposit. Those with orders may choose to have their money refunded as well, but will lose the free shipping for the preorder. |

I noticed that the test vehicle has more bolts on the top to secure the strut. How would these work for those with only 3 holes/bolts that hold the strut at the top?

Just got confirmation from HP Autosport that my camber plates are shipping. UPS tracking says "Order processed: ready for UPS" exciting!

Yes, the standard versions are ready to go. Other variations(coilover spring ID and none stock struts) should not be far behind.

If any vendor is telling you camber plates are noise free, they are not telling you the truth. Camber plates will transmit a lot more road and suspension noise to the cabin vs the stock rubber mount, that is just a fact. Camber plates aren't a street product, it is a racing product people use on the streets so you must be ready to accept increase in NVH.

I agree to some extent, race car parts equal race car compromises when used on the street. However, it was my understanding that these plates were specifically designed not to clunk or rattle like all the other camber plates currently on the market.

It is correct to say camber plates themselves do not make any noise when properly designed and manufactured. Almost everyone mistaken the noise coming from the plates, but in fact they are from the road, suspension components and often valving inside of the struts. A tiny clicking sound from inside of the struts can often sound like a clunk with camber plates installed. Improperly torqued anti roll bar links can sound like your entire front-end is about to fall off of the car.
