M04M On-Road Graphite Upper Bumper TAMIYA M04M-09/WO by 3Racing  [M04M-09/WO]

Overview of the graphite upper bumper

This upper bumper is crafted from graphite for the TAMIYA M04M 1/10 on-road chassis and carries the part number M04M-09/WO from 3Racing. It is intended to replace the original upper bumper to alter front stiffness and provide alternative mounting points for bodywork or braces.

Purpose and fitment: engineered for the M04M layout, the component stiffens the front end which can sharpen steering input and increase chassis feedback while tuning. It is a light graphite upgrade for hobby use only.

Fitting guidance: the bumper uses the standard upper bumper screw locations found on M04M assemblies; basic hand tools and the stock mounting hardware will normally do. Confirm clearance around steering links and servo horns after installation and make small shims or trims to the body if required.

Maintenance suggestions: check mating surfaces for wear and ensure bolts remain tight after first sessions. Pair the bumper with suspension or tyre changes to understand its effect on handling.
