I've seen a few delrin aftermarket parts around. Apparently it's fantastic for RC's
I don't know if companies like losi have special mixes blended for them or what. But I can get a 24x48 sheet of abs in 3/16 for 33 bucks and I can yield 115 shock towers

I just was looking for something not as pricy as carbon or graphite just a good durable plastic.

I currently copying the xxx-4 front shock tower in my cad program right now. gonna make front and rears and maybee some battery straps who knows
