Jeremy-If you use this Kydex front bumper along with the CRC foam bumper, you will avoid most graphite breakage with any of the cars. We have had no particular problems with KSG. The second thing to avoid is solid aluminum body posts at the back of the car. These will tend to break the graphite they are attached to.
Either use a back window wing mount or my preference the
HPI plastic mounts attached to the body. These mounts will work with the traditional oval wing as well as the J Concepts
0100 Illusion wing that I like. If you remove the potential for breakage at the front bumper and at the wing, the rest of our pan cars are very rugged.
I can see where the front of the chassis might be broken using the typical graphite front bumper.
Joe-Thanks for the post and report.
