    I'm wondering where all you guys get your press plates? Obviously I've had a look on ebay etc, and seems there's a few that do exactly what I want, only I'm pretty impatient and would like to get them this saturday!

    Anybody know a place that does them and that I could collect on the weekend? I live in walsall, so as nearby as possible really!

    Any ideas? Thanks - If not, ebay it is haha

    Ordered them one morning..

    They'd arrived not 24 hours later.

    POW!

    I'd suggest ordering them.. about.. now.. but.. you're not online. If you order them super early tomorrow, i'd assume you'd get them by saturday (Or ring them.. see when they can get them to you by)

    but as i said.. for me.. it was next day

    I think they were about that, yeah.

    Well.. as i said, i'd give them a ring as early as possible to make sure you'd get them for tomorrow. Because, obviously they have to get them in the mail before the pickup (I think it's like.. around 11ish?).. And.. i don't know if the one at 5pm is too late for next day delivery.

    But yeah, just give them a ring and ask.

    As Raz said, they ARE illegal.. and if you get stopped.. they will fine you £30. I have them on my car, and haven't been stopped yet.. but.. i guess it's only a matter of time
