Tower has the bumper and skid plate for "pre-order" with availability "mid-February". I per-ordered the bumper, their price was a few bucks cheaper. I bet it will ship within the next week. I also ordered a T-bone rear bumper, saw that someone had put it on the front and looks good without being too bulky or needing to attach to the diff case. I'll play with options.

Would love to see pics of that rear bumper in the front b i am not payn 30 bucks for a bumper
 
And me who just got the T-bone racing bumper for my son's Kraton... good fit though but a bit heavy and I prefer the shape of the RPM... ah well.

about this we test drove the Kraton stock on 4s for now and pretty happy. very sweet noise but I see what people were saying about the suspension. the front rises on acceleration and dip on breaking. Not a big issue to be honest but once I fitted the T-bone racing bumper the front is lower and I suspect I'll need to adjust the spring to raise the front...

I have bought stiffer springs and got a different spring oil too but but now I'm gonna try to adjust the stock spring to raise the front to level the car standing still. Is that what others have done when adding the Tbone front bumper?
 
Ordered RPM skid and front bumper, status : shipped, will check how it fits the talion.
 
I see they are in stock now. Just might have to try them.
 
I really hope this bumper works as good as it looks. My Tbone saved me from several bad hits this morning, and while it does look all MAD MAXish, I think a little more could have gone into the aesthetics.
 
I ordered that RPM rear skid plate...that was a must have for me. I've been using a few layers of gorilla tape to protect the tail end of the chassis (last 2 1/2 to 3 inches). After each run....that tape is worn from black to white. The top black layer of the tape is gone....it's into the fibers fast. Held off on the bumper for now. Still using what's left of the T-Bone. Got the part in today, looks great. It came with longer screws, now I have extra for the motor mount. A-main provided a scratch off also. Score !!!!

I must have ordered this at just the right time from Tower. Came in today! Comes with nice little instruction sheet and all needed screws. Super simple and quick to install. Looks great on the Kraton!

Very Nice! Love RPM's stuff. Just looks beefy and clean. But I enjoy fabricating things...:D
