Calling all SRB owners and fans . I can'nt decide on what bumper to fit on my Funco/Champ build . I like the after market offerings from RC Channel ,but i'am torn . The Buggy Champ one looks good but i like the wrap around Scorcher one too . I dont want the hassel of making a custom item . If it were you what would you fit ? Any other ideas ?????

The box art scorcher one may look OK on the Funco, but might be a bit too high ?

The simple front only 'n shaped' hoop from RCChannel or paulhgf (??) is a good choice i think. I don't like the wide bar type designs, even if these do offer your wheels some protection in an accident . For sole running on the beach or soft areas then i'd go for looks over function :o

History for last 32 months.. bought too many, not sold enough - current stable 41.2 EEK

I'am leaning towards that one . I'll just have to improve my driving :o

Another vote for the RC Channel BC bumper, I think the SS bumper would be too big

This is the best aftermarket bumper for the Rough Rider IMO, another j-man special. I have one fitted to my Buggy Champ & it sets off the whole car beautifully.
