Description
A rear stay/bumper plate that widens the roller mounting position, machined from 1.5mm-thick full carbon for low weight and high rigidity with minimal deformation during running.

It is printed with a yellow Tamiya logo and "MINI 4WD" lettering; avoid cleaning agents, which can remove the print. Mounting screws and nuts are included.
