sent my original to a custom parts shop and got the result today. nose brace holes were to small and need to be trimmed before installed. they seem to have metric drill bits only. even shock mount holes are 3mm. everything else is pretty much close to my original. I love this shock tower :D

made a few extras. but got only one left. I hope someone in the States pop it up.
I willing to sell one for the material cost, and I can cover the shipping. I can't make more 'cause carbon fiber is pricy here

I think mine has different arms than yours. but you can get carbon towers fit your rc10 from the forum member atlas.

this tread would be a help http://www.rc10talk.com/viewtopic.php?f=38&t=10403

I noticed I never updated this thread for a while even after I got this nice shock tower from Jay Dub a year ago :mrgreen:
I'm updating this and hopping he still got the template and can make more for the members here
