Exotek AE 6 series alloy rear hubs & wing mounts

Exotek have released two new aluminium option parts for the Team Associated 6 series of kits in the form of 2-tone rear hubs and a buggy wing mount set.

The customised polished black base with blue chamfered accents goes great with stock plastic parts or after market blue parts and through careful cutting and shaping the hubs are actually 2g lighter than the alloy Team Associated counterparts.
