BSR BT-4 rear damper stay / shock tower / thing

thingiverse

I lack driving skills combined with my BSR BT-4 touring car's inability to fly, leading me to crash on its roof one too many times. The rear damper stay finally gave way, a major setback since Hong Kong (HK) seems to run out of spare parts quickly. I considered buying an original TeamC part but that option was far too costly due to the carbon material and lengthy shipping distance from halfway around the world. Since the printed part proved more flexible than its original counterpart, I added a strengthening rib for extra support. Printing with increased infill density without the rib could have been an alternative, but this approach conserves material and reduces weight. I opted for PLA as my printing material; it remains to be seen how well it will hold up in the long run.
