Those are the HPI 3mm Carbon TVP's. I've also got the carbon a-arm braces from HPI too. As far as durability is concerned I haven't had any issues with it. I've had some nasty landings on pavement from about 10 feet up and haven't damaged them yet. I used to switch them back to stock when I was bashing but don't even bother anymore.[img][/img]
Full list of upgrades:
HPI 3mm Carbon TVp's
HPI Carbon a-arm braces
HPI dual disc brake
HPI light weight trans gears
HPI HD drive cups
HPI HD dogbones
HPI adjustable upper a-arms
Hot Bodies titanium gear shaft
4 spider diff mod
Ofna tank mod
MP servo saver mod
Adrenaline tank guard
throttle linkage mod
HCR titanium engine plate
HCR titanium roll bar
Lundsford titanium turnbuckles and hinge pins

This is the best I can do for now. I'm going to be taking it apart soon to give it a rebuild over the winter and I'll take some better pics of the MP mod. Mine is a little different too. I had the GPM alloy steering cranks and switched to the MP mod later on. I used the alloy center link and post from the GPM setup and the rest is from the MP mod.
