Why is it these come standard on almost all touring and drift cars but not buggies? It seems to me this class of RC would benefit the most from a urethane bumper.
I'm after something like this for the DF-03, does such a product exist?

The foam bumper on touring cars is really just to add support for the body so it doesn't crack when you hit stuff. Most only have a thin plastic skid plate on the bottom of the foam, neither of which really protect the car from a front impact.
if you want a real bumper for the df03 check out TBone racing bumpers.

That's what I want! Didn't know the name of the product I should be looking for. Thanks. I have no idea why this isn't available as part of the standard suite of hop ups.
