Lightweight Carbon Bumper for TRF418

The Tamiya 3404030 Carbon Fiber Bumper Holder is a finely made 2mm carbon component designed to strengthen the TRF418 front end. The material choice favours a high strength-to-weight ratio to resist knocks while keeping mass down.

Engineered for Track Handling

Specifically matched to the TRF418, this bumper holder reduces bulk compared with stock plastic parts and helps refine weight distribution for sharper responses through corners. It is a practical upgrade for club and shakedown sessions.

Simple Alignment with 42270 Chassis

The part is cut for a precise fit on the Tamiya 42270 chassis, allowing clean installation and consistent alignment. Its accuracy reduces the need for shimming and streamlines setup changes.

Is any extra drilling required?

No additional drilling should be needed when fitting to a standard 42270 chassis. The mounting holes are aligned for a direct swap with the stock bumper holder.

Will this change front-end feel?

Yes, reducing weight at the front can alter handling and steering response. Expect a crisper feel; fine tuning of springs and toe may be necessary.

What maintenance does carbon require?

Keep the carbon clean and inspect for delamination after hard impacts. Tighten mounting screws periodically to prevent looseness.

Can I use stock screws?

In most cases the original mounting hardware will work fine. If you prefer upgrades, lightweight alloy or stainless fasteners are common choices.
