New from Xray and made for the X1 formula car is an aluminium body post plate. The part allows the use of most of today’s front wings, who often have different body post mounting positions, and by using the plate, the position of the body post remains the same regardless the wing type. CNC-machined from high-quality aluminium and coming orange anodised the 4mm plate offers a high rigidity and improved looks.
