• Premium Chrome Finish — The polished chrome coating not only provides excellent impact resistance but also delivers a striking visual upgrade that makes your RC car stand out, whether you're competing at a track or bashing in local parks across the UK.
• Set of Four Guards — The pack includes four complete bumper pads, giving you comprehensive coverage of the front bumper assembly and ensuring even weight distribution and balanced protection around the entire impact zone.
• 2.5x10 BCS Fasteners Included — Four stainless steel 2.5x10 button cap screws are supplied in the package, eliminating the need to source fasteners separately and guaranteeing compatibility with the bumper guard mounting points.
• Precision 2.7mm Drill Bit Included — Traxxas thoughtfully includes the exact drill bit required for installation, which is particularly valuable if your bumper requires new mounting holes or if you're fitting guards to a bumper that hasn't had them before, saving you time and ensuring perfectly sized holes every time.
• Direct Fitment Design — These guards are engineered as direct replacements or upgrades for the specific bumper models (#9126 and #9127), meaning no modification, trimming or adaptation is required—simply install and enjoy enhanced protection.
• Lightweight Protection — Unlike heavier aftermarket alternatives, these genuine Traxxas guards provide impact absorption without significantly adding weight to your RC car, maintaining the balance and handling characteristics your vehicle is tuned for.

Technical Performance

These chrome bumper guards represent Traxxas's commitment to quality materials and engineering precision. The guards are manufactured to exacting tolerances that guarantee they will align perfectly with #9126 and #9127 front bumpers, with no gaps, misalignment or fitment issues. The chrome plating process applied to these guards provides both aesthetic appeal and functional corrosion resistance, meaning they'll maintain their lustrous finish even after exposure to moisture, grass clippings and outdoor elements that are inevitable during regular RC car use. The 2.5x10 button cap screws included are stainless steel, selected for their strength-to-weight ratio and their ability to resist corrosion without adding unnecessary bulk to the assembly. The inclusion of the 2.7mm drill bit speaks to Traxxas's understanding of the user experience—this is the precise diameter required for the fastener holes, and having it included prevents the common problem of oversized or undersized mounting holes that can cause fasteners to strip or fail under impact. The overall design prioritises impact energy dissipation, distributing force across the guard assembly to protect the underlying bumper structure from damage that might otherwise require expensive replacement bumper assemblies.

Frequently Asked Questions

• Will these bumper guards fit my Traxxas model? — These guards are specifically engineered for Traxxas models fitted with #9126 or #9127 front bumpers. If your RC car uses either of these bumper assemblies, these guards will fit directly without any modification or adaptation required. Check your vehicle's manual or contact our team if you're unsure which bumper your model uses.
• How difficult is the installation process? — Installation is straightforward and suitable for RC enthusiasts of all skill levels. The 2.7mm drill bit is included, which is the exact size needed for mounting holes. Simply position the guards on your bumper, drill the holes where indicated, and secure them with the supplied 2.5x10 fasteners. Most installations take less than 15 minutes and require only a cordless drill and a hex key or Allen wrench to fit the button cap screws.
• Are these genuine Traxxas parts? — Yes, these are 100% genuine Traxxas original parts manufactured by Traxxas, not aftermarket replicas. The part number TRX9125 and EAN code 020334912503 confirm authenticity. When you buy from RC Model Shop, you're purchasing genuine Traxxas components backed by Traxxas quality standards.
• Will the chrome finish scratch or wear off during use? — The chrome plating on these guards is durable and designed to withstand the impact and abrasion typical of RC car use. Minor cosmetic marks may appear over time with heavy use, which is normal for any protective component. However, the chrome will not flake off or deteriorate under normal operating conditions. If your guards do suffer damage, they're inexpensive to replace, making them an excellent investment in bumper protection.
• What's the purpose of the included drill bit? — The 2.7mm drill bit is included because it's the precise diameter required for the mounting holes on these guards. Rather than forcing you to guess the correct bit size or source one separately, Traxxas includes it to ensure perfect fitment. This attention to detail is typical of genuine Traxxas parts and sets them apart from generic aftermarket options.
• Can I use these guards on both front and rear bumpers? — These guards are specifically designed and tested for #9126 and #9127 front bumpers. Using them on rear bumpers or bumpers of different models is not recommended, as fitment and protection cannot be guaranteed. If you need guards for other bumper types, RC Model Shop can help you identify the correct part number for your specific requirements.
• Do I need to remove my bumper to install these guards? — In most cases, you can install these guards whilst the bumper is attached to your RC car. However, some users find it easier to remove the bumper first, drill the holes on a workbench with better visibility, and then reinstall the bumper with the guards already fitted. Either approach works equally well—choose whichever suits your preference and your workspace setup.
