RPM Rear Bumper for Traxxas Slash (Black)
About this part
The RPM Traxxas Slash Rear Bumper was molded from RPM's incredibly durable materials to create a bumper that looks just like current full-sized Short Course and Baja style rear bumpers. Full-sized rear bumpers are wide and flat and this scale version is exactly that, for the ultimate in rear-end protection. RPM rear bumpers will stop most rear impacts from affecting the truck in any negative way.
Additionally, RPM rear bumpers for the Traxxas Slash weigh in at a full 9 grams (18%) lighter than the stock version! Lighter is always faster. What else could RPM do to make these things even more realistic? How about mounting points for mud flaps? That’s right; these bumpers come stock with mounting positions for RPM mud flaps (#81012 - available separately). Now the Slash owner can run mud flaps for ultra-realistic good looks.
RPM rear bumpers for the Traxxas Slash are available in a variety of color options. All RPM rear bumpers are sold with all necessary hardware and complete mounting instructions.

I bought this to replace the worn out stock bumper on my Slash 2wd. It comes with instructions, it's durable, it fit well, and in my opinion, it looks better than the stock. This is a good alternative to the stock bumper if you ever need to replace it.
Really strong so far and looks good. Super easy install
Fit great. No complaints. Looks more durable than the Traxxas original...but I'm not going to purposefully test that theory. Easy install.
RPM rear bumper is a great addition to the slash, or slash 4x4. It gives it a great scale look with the mud flaps installed.
Fits perfectly and is 11 grams lighter than the stock part but just as durable.
Reviewers of the RPM Rear Bumper for the Traxxas Slash (Black) generally report a good fit and easy installation, with most praising its looks and durability relative to the stock bumper. One reviewer noted a scale-style appearance with mud flaps fitted and another reported it is 11 grams lighter than the stock part. Five of six reviews are five-star ratings. The one three-star review reports the bumper degrading quickly from wheelies and looping out, despite using a wheelie bar, so durability under hard driving is the main point of disagreement. Reviews do not clearly separate 2WD and 4x4 use beyond one mention of the Slash 4x4.
