Graphite Front Cover for RX8 by XRAY 341180

The XRAY 341180 front chassis cover is made from precision CNC-machined graphite to bring improved rigidity and reduced mass to RX8 builds. Its clean finish complements older chassis while offering practical stiffness where it counts.

Why Graphite Suits Competitive Setups

Graphite combines low weight with high bending resistance, helping to sharpen turn-in and stabilise mid-corner behavior. The consistent machining tolerances mean you get repeatable geometry every time you fit the part.

Designed with Classic RX Fans in Mind

Specifically aimed at the older RX series, this front cover lets enthusiasts keep an authentic look while benefiting from modern material properties. Fitment is focused on the RX8 layout to preserve original mounting patterns.
Remark :
Due to limited stock availability, please notice that some XRAY items may have to order from the factory and the ready time is around 4-6 weeks. Customer purchases the item is assumed to accept the waiting time which allows us to order directly from the manufacturer if the item is out of our warehouse.

Is XRAY 341180 compatible with aftermarket brackets?

Some aftermarket brackets may require small adjustments; verify hole spacing before final assembly to avoid misalignment.

Will fitting this change chassis flex characteristics?

Yes, the addition of a graphite front cover increases local stiffness which can change front-end feedback and balance; tune shock and toe settings if needed.

Can I paint the graphite part?

You can use light paint or decals but prepare the surface with a primer suited for composite materials to ensure adhesion.

What tools are recommended for fitting?

Use a torque-limited driver and the correct sized hex bits; avoid impact tools to protect the graphite edges.
