Wide Bumper for the XX series?

Post by Caine »

Was just wondering if anyone made a wide bumper for the XX/XXT ?

Wouldnt mind finding one somewhere if they exist, just havent ever seen one for sale that i recall.

Or would it just be a matter of making one fit from something else if thats possible

Rpm made a bumper, but I don't think it was wider, it had more of a kick up. With the flat bottom of the bulkhead I think it would be fairly easy to make one though.

It wouldn't be a direct fit as the mounting holes are a different pattern from the XX to the XXX, but you should be able to drill some extra holes though.

How much wider are you looking for? Since the bulkhead is so narrow, you can probably just use an older RC10 bumper (andys, jg, etc) and redrill / modify it to make it work.
