Key Features
- Premium Polycarbonate Construction — Manufactured from strong and flexible polycarbonate material that offers superior durability compared to standard plastic bodies, ensuring your investment withstands repeated impacts and harsh weather conditions whilst maintaining its shape and integrity throughout extended bashing sessions.
- Pre-Painted Gunmetal Finish — The professional-quality Gunmetal paint scheme is applied at the factory, eliminating the need for time-consuming custom painting and masking at home, whilst delivering a factory-finish appearance that looks as good as any high-end RC car UK you'll see at the track.
- High-Quality Decal Decorations — Applied with precision during manufacturing, the included decal sheet adds authentic detail and realism to your bodyshell, creating a finished look that rivals custom paint and graphics without requiring specialist skills or equipment.
- Pre-Assembled Design — The body arrives fully trimmed and ready to fit, with window masks and pre-cut details already in place, meaning you can install it in minutes rather than spending hours with cutting tools and masking tape, getting your truck back to the track faster.
- Window Masks Included — Pre-applied window masks protect the clear windscreen area during installation and use, allowing light to pass through whilst maintaining the structural integrity of the bodyshell in this critical viewing area.
- 1/7 Scale Compatible — Specifically engineered to fit the ARRMA BIG ROCK 6S BLX chassis perfectly, ensuring proper fitment, aerodynamics, and ground clearance without modification or additional accessories.
- Brushless RC Truck Ready — This bodyshell is purpose-designed for the high-performance 6S brushless platform, meaning it will handle the power delivery and speed capabilities of modern brushless RC trucks without flex or deformation during aggressive acceleration and cornering.
Technical Performance
The ARRMA BIG ROCK 6S BLX Painted Decaled Trimmed Body represents the pinnacle of replacement body engineering for 1/7 scale off-road trucks. Constructed from flexible polycarbonate that has been engineered through countless hours of testing by ARRMA engineers, this bodyshell absorbs impacts and vibration whilst maintaining aerodynamic efficiency at speed. The material selection is critical for 6S brushless performance, where power levels can exceed 2000W; ordinary plastic bodies simply cannot withstand the stresses and speeds involved, leading to premature failure and costly repairs. This gunmetal-painted body maintains structural rigidity under load whilst flexing appropriately during impacts, preventing cracks and permanent deformation. The pre-painted finish utilises industrial-grade paints and clear coats that resist UV degradation, fuel spillage, water exposure, and the general wear and tear that comes with regular off-road use. The high-quality decals are printed on durable vinyl with UV-resistant inks, ensuring your bodyshell maintains its showroom appearance for years of use. Installation onto your BIG ROCK 6S BLX platform is straightforward due to the factory trim and pre-assembled nature, eliminating the guesswork and potential fitment issues associated with untrimmed clear shells or poorly finished aftermarket bodies.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Will this painted body shell fit my ARRMA BIG ROCK 6S BLX? — Yes, this body shell is engineered specifically for the ARRMA BIG ROCK 6S BLX platform. It arrives pre-trimmed and ready to fit, requiring no modification or cutting. Simply mount it onto your chassis using the factory-provided body posts and clips, and your truck is ready to run.
- What makes this pre-painted body better than a clear shell? — Pre-painted bodies eliminate the need for custom painting, masking, and drying time, allowing you to enjoy your truck immediately. The factory Gunmetal finish is applied using professional automotive-grade processes that deliver superior coverage, durability, and finish quality compared to hand-painted alternatives. Clear shells require significant additional work and specialist equipment to achieve similar results.
- Is the polycarbonate material durable enough for regular use? — Absolutely. ARRMA's polycarbonate formulation is specifically engineered for high-performance 6S brushless applications where power and speed are extreme. The flexible nature of the material absorbs impacts without cracking, whilst the thickness and moulding ensure it maintains shape and aerodynamic efficiency even during aggressive bashers sessions or competitive racing.
- How do I install this body onto my BIG ROCK 6S? — Installation is straightforward. Remove your existing body, position the new Gunmetal shell onto your chassis body posts, align it properly, and secure it using the factory clips and fasteners. The pre-trimmed design means no cutting or fitting modifications are required, allowing installation in minutes.
- Will this bodyshell affect performance or speed? — No, this is a direct OEM-specification replacement bodyshell. It maintains the same aerodynamic profile, weight distribution, and ground clearance as the original, ensuring your truck's handling, top speed, and acceleration characteristics remain unchanged. The Gunmetal colour and decals add visual impact without compromising performance.
- What is the scale of this body shell? — This is a 1/7 scale bodyshell designed specifically for the 1/7 scale ARRMA BIG ROCK 6S BLX platform, delivering authentic proportions and details at this impressive scale.
- Are the decals pre-applied or do I need to apply them? — The decals arrive pre-applied by the factory, eliminating the need for you to apply them. This ensures perfect alignment and professional results without any air bubbles or misalignment issues that can occur with hand application.
- Can I use this body on other ARRMA models? — No, this bodyshell is engineered exclusively for the ARRMA BIG ROCK 6S BLX platform. Using it on other models may result in poor fitment, handling issues, and potential damage to both the body and chassis. Always verify compatibility before purchasing replacement bodyshells.
- How often should I replace my bodyshell? — Replacement intervals depend on your usage. If you bash regularly, you might replace it annually or bi-annually. However, many pilots keep the same shell for several years if they avoid major crashes. This body shell makes an excellent backup, allowing you to keep running whilst your primary body undergoes repair or customisation.
