Front-End Defence Tailored for the GT-01

If you want to reduce repair time after bumps and shunts, the Tamiya 40147 bumper set is built to protect the GT-01 nose. The sponge element soaks up impact energy while the Delrin backing resists wear, and the gray and black finish integrates with most bodywork.

Advantages Explained

Material: The sponge layer cushions hits while Delrin provides a durable structural face that resists cracking.
Compatibility: Purpose made for the Tamiya GT-01 chassis to ensure correct fit and simple mounting.
Color Scheme: Subdued gray and black that suit a range of RC car liveries.

Is the bumper easy to replace if damaged?

Yes, replacement is straightforward. Remove the mounting screws, swap in a new unit, and reassemble. Keep spare screws to hand in case originals wear.

Will the bumper affect steering precision?

Any added mass at the front is small, so steering balance is largely unchanged. The main effect is improved protection rather than altered handling.

Can I upgrade only the sponge later on?

In many cases the sponge can be replaced separately if the Delrin backing remains intact, but check fit and adhesive method before attempting a repair.
