Default Re: front bumper

Does anyone know of an aftermarket wider front bumper for the pro 4? I keep braking hubs and i think a wider front bumper would help alot.

Also does anyone know if the rpm bumper for a Nitro TC3 will work without modifications? Can I just slip it under the foam bumper?

thanks in advance

You can modify the BRP TC3 front bumper to fit. I just did this myself, took all of about 15 minutes to do, it was pretty easy. Thanks for the heads up on this BTW Erik.

I know a lot of you have gone to aftermarket 3mm chassis sets for your cars on carpet, and I actually just redid my car with the HPI 3mm lower and 2.5mm upper deck. The car feels a heck of a lot stiffer than with the stock chassis. Until recently I didn't even realize HPI had a thicker chassis out there. Something to consider if you are going to swap plates.

Will have photos of the new shell and chassis set soon. Probibally by this weekend.
