Re: The Official "What is it?" Thread
Just stumbled across an ID for those shocks while doing some eBay searches. Think they're Hot Bodies(HPI) MAXX threaded shocks for the T-Maxx. Came in a few colors....here's purple:

Re: The Official "What is it?" Thread
The wheels look like Ultimara 1/8 wheels to me, a manufacturer of foam tires and aluminium option wheels at the 70´s. I have wheels for Associated and MRP cars and the overall look is exactly the same, just for different car. I have no clue what car could use these wheels but for sure they are very rare today. I will have a look if I can find any paperwork.

Re: The Official "What is it?" Thread
A while back I picked up a box of RC10T, Astute & Frog parts with quite few hop ups. I found this aluminiun bumper in the box but I can't seem to plave it. It's not wide enough for a clod and I can't find anything quite like it doing an image search. It's solid aluminium and has a bit of heft to it. Does anyone recognize it? Thanks in advance.

Re: The Official "What is it?" Thread
They look chrome plastic like...but I believe I have a set of alloy fronts(?) that match those...or rears. Can't quite remember...or get to them to verify ![Rolling Eyes :roll:](./images/smilies/icon_rolleyes.gif)

I have a set of rears in chrome plastic that looks just like them.JK Racing wrote:could they be chrome plastic? if alloy, JPS?
Same golden chrome.
Crosspin mount.
Chance is that they are plastics.
Edit: please delete if against the rules
