Well, it is nice to know that the parts are out but I personally won't be rushing out to buy them. Never broken the plastic mounts, even in a crash that was strong enough to bend the front suspension shaft and break the wishbone too!
Shims is a lot cheaper and seems to work.
All I have broken on the car from crashes are a couple of shock towers and a gearbox top (always my fault for landing on the roof) plus the aforementioned wishbone/suspension shaft (which was from a head on with a car going the wrong way around the track). Rear shock tower breakages are solved by mounting the wing further back so it doesn't hit the tower, front tower breakages are solved by staying on all four wheels - same thing applies to every 4wd car!
