Secure the XV-02 Nose with a Carbon Brace

The Tamiya 22073 XV-02 Carbon Bumper Support acts as a lightweight brace to keep the front assembly tidy and secure. Crafted from 2mm carbon fiber, it holds the urethane sponge and body mount firmly against the XV-02 chassis while remaining lightweight.

Notable Details of the Tamiya 22073

Material: 2mm carbon fiber for increased stiffness without a weight penalty.
Compatibility: Designed specifically for the Tamiya XV-02 chassis to ensure a snug fit.
Components Included: Includes rubber bushings, snap pins and socket screws so the kit is ready to fit.

Fitment Notes and Advice

Fitting is user friendly and requires only basic tools. Supplied rubber bushings and snap pins help maintain a tight assembly so the sponge and body mount do not shift under load or during cornering.

Will this support affect crash durability?

The carbon support increases structural stiffness which can distribute minor impacts better. It will not make the car unbreakable, but it helps protect the sponge and mount from flex-related wear.

Can I paint or finish the carbon plate?

Carbon can be painted using appropriate primers and paints, but many owners leave the weave visible. If painting, mask off areas with holes to avoid changing fit dimensions.

Does the kit include all fasteners I need?

Yes, the package contains the rubber bushings, snap pins and socket screws required for normal installation. Keep spare pins handy for maintenance.
