Carbon Upgrade for a Tighter XV-02 Front End

The Tamiya 22073 XV-02 Carbon Bumper Support is a tidy upgrade for drivers wanting a firmer front assembly. Fabricated from 2mm carbon fiber, it provides a rigid but light plate to keep the urethane sponge and body mount in the correct position on the XV-02 chassis.

Tamiya 22073 Features at a Glance

Material: Durable 2mm carbon fiber that reduces flex while keeping weight low.
Compatibility: Tailored for the Tamiya XV-02 chassis, ensuring proper fitment and alignment.
Components Included: Comes with rubber bushings, snap pins and socket screws so you can fit it straight away.

How It Installs

Installation is straightforward and suitable for hobbyists. The package supplies the rubber bushings and snap pins needed to seat the bumper support cleanly, so the sponge and body mount stay fixed during running and light impacts.

Does this fit on touring conversions based on the XV-02?

If the conversion keeps the original XV-02 front mounting points, the Tamiya 22073 should fit. Check that the mount spacing and screw pattern match before fitting.

Is 2mm carbon thick enough for track use?

Yes, 2mm offers a good balance of strength and weight for normal club or track use. For heavier impacts some users prefer thicker plates, but 2mm is standard for this application.

Are replacements for the rubber bushings available?

Rubber bushings are common parts and can be sourced from hobby shops. Keep the original pieces as templates when buying spares to match size and fit.
