  1. Kraton 4s
I am about to get a Kraton 4S and I want to get a better front bumper with it. I like this RPM bumper, but I think it only works on a 6S. From the videos it looks like a 4S has a different bolt pattern then this. How do I find a bumper like this that will work on a Kraton 4S. This is my first RC car, I can't figure out how you find optional parts for a specific car.

I am planning on getting a Kraton 4S with the dual 2S battery pack and charger they sell with it. Then 17mm Backflip tires for the soft dirt I will be using it in, and I also want to get some kind of wrap around front bumper to add too it to protect the suspension if I slam into something head on. How do I tell which parts work on a 4S... and does anyone know of a good front bumper that works on a 4S Kraton?
 
I did a conversion of my Outcast 4s to the Kraton 4s chassis and just kept the Outcast bumper on there. Not sure if it fits with the Kraton body, but it definitely fits under the Proline clear Brute body I'm working on. However, the entire mount was from the outcast, so not positive if it bolts straight on to the Kraton front end as-is.

That being said, I'm in the same boat as you: not really sure which parts are compatible with our 4s trucks.... Hopefully there will be more aftermarket options for us. Really have my fingers crossed for more durable A-Arms....
 
T-bone racing has bumpers for the 4s not wrap around though nothing yet by RPM that I know about.

Thanks. I found this one...

...and ordered everything. I've been an "RC spectator" of RC Airplanes my whole life after having a trainer for a while when I was a teenager. They are too much of a hassle and expensive, so I finally decided to get this car to zip around the field in front of my house. I figure it will hold up like a tank the way I will just be zipping around a field and not sending it on jumps 10 feet high in the air. Since I am new at this, I thought the Kraton 4S was perfect for everything I was looking for except for basically not having a front bumper when I will probably hit things head on at least a few times while I am learning to drive.

It says it will all be here on Friday, so I know what I will be doing next weekend!
