This is my biggest concern as well. It's been mentioned the old bumper does not work and it does not touch the bulk heads. Bucketboy has a mod for it and I'm curious to see the pics. I will be as always CAing the front chassis and screw holes. I'm not sure why Xray didn't design it more like the old one. My guess is they didn't want to tool molds. I'll be more confident when I don't read reports of broken chassis plates.

I'm running Speed Passion motors and the flatspot is too short. I'll try flipping them and if that doesn't work, I'll take my dremel and make a bigger flatspot.
I really like the design of the car, but the front bumper is the only thing that I'm scared about. The upper part of the bumper isn't touching the bulkheads anymore, so a hard could case a crack in the chassis I guess. I'm really thinking about ordering the T3 bumper posts and a T3 bumper.
