Creative juices start flowing... :silly:
If you lower the horizontal rod and fixate it on the bridge, it's a gearbox reinforcement.
My plan would be to screw down the wing mounts differently so you'd have a couple of ball ends sticking out.
You don't have to damage the FRP for that...

Nice idea! Just using ballends to mount the wingstay and connect them with 2 rods to the 2 holes at the gearbox, where the MSC was mounted. Now i want to drive home to fix that! :silly:

The pic you've quoted is not the one after the crash. The mount was heavy pushed forwards after that. Also i'm using topforce wing mount again, 'cause the ones from the dyna storm are to sloppy.

Can even make the car look cool. I thought that stabiliser rod gives a nice touch to the line of the chassis. B)
I just quoted your picture to give the neutral reader an idea of what we're talking about. ;)

My plate is handmade by myself.
Here a really quick solution: make a little carbon fiber plate as I designed with a 3 mm hole in the middle and you have your point for the brace. You can also change the position of the little plate or make two holes, this is only a quick idea, a starting point.
You can also made yourself a damper plate with a different shape with the brace point included.
Or you can have a look here:

Contact them, send them your design, they'll do the part for you. Easy solutions for a little problem imho.

I know your MR from TC but i don't have this kind of rear damper bridge. There is no point to mount it in the middle.

Edou I think you should change the position of the front ballend to the position of the old msc resistor plate, you are creating to much strain on the lid like this. (does look cool though)

I reckon you mean where the resistor plate was... like on Max's setup?
On the one hand that's a good idea, it is more sturdy and more towards the center.
But the total leverage on the bottom adjuster would be quite a bit greater, possibly making it pop out more easily.
It's food for thought though...

I don't like the red box at a buggy.
Are these mountholes bigger than normal? Can we do this with paypal? "Per Nachnahme" is more expensive.

Manta Ray is back! Thanks waterbok for organ donation ;)
Now the rear damper stay has a stiffener
