This graphite upper bumper is made for the TAMIYA M04M 1/10 on-road chassis and is supplied as part number M04M-09/WO by 3Racing. It replaces the stock upper bumper section to change front-end stiffness and to provide an alternate mounting interface for body or brace components.
Fitment and purpose: sized specifically for the M04M layout, the piece stiffens the front assembly to refine steering response and increase chassis feedback when tuning. It is a lightweight graphite hop-up intended for hobby-grade use only.
Installation notes: the bumper installs at the factory upper bumper screw points on M04M-style plates; standard hex drivers and the original fasteners are normally enough. Check alignment with the body mounts and confirm there is no interference with steering linkages or servo horns. Minor trimming or shimming of body or brace parts may be required to clear tight setups.
Care and tuning tips: graphite balances stiffness with low mass, so inspect mating faces for wear and keep fasteners checked after initial runs. Use this part alongside suspension or tyre changes to evaluate front-end handling differences.
