• Pre-Applied Decals — All graphics and branding decals come factory-applied, eliminating the need for careful masking, cutting, and application, so you can mount the body and hit the track immediately.
• No Trimming Required — Unlike many aftermarket bodies, this Traxxas component arrives with all mounting holes pre-drilled and edges pre-finished, meaning no trimming with craft knives or Dremel tools is necessary.
• Ready to Mount — The body comes completely prepared for immediate installation onto your Bandit or Bandit VXL chassis, making this an instant upgrade that takes minutes to fit rather than hours to prepare.
• Includes Front and Rear Canopy — The package includes both front and rear clear canopy sections, providing complete body coverage and protection for your chassis and electronics.
• Integral Rear Wing — A factory-mounted rear wing is included, offering both aesthetic appeal and aerodynamic downforce benefits during high-speed running, improving stability and cornering performance.
• Tough Polycarbonate Construction — The durable polycarbonate material resists impacts and crashes far better than alternative materials, ensuring your investment lasts through seasons of bashing and racing.
• Compatible with Both Bandit Models — This bodyshell fits both the standard Bandit and the more powerful Bandit VXL, providing flexibility for different power configurations within the same platform.
• Complete Decal Sheet Included — Should you wish to refresh graphics in future, an additional decal sheet is provided, allowing for customisation and personalisation as needed.

Technical Performance

The Traxxas Body, Bandit (also fits Bandit VXL), Orange / wing is engineered for 1/10 scale RC buggy applications, delivering the precision fit and quality construction that Traxxas is recognised for throughout the RC hobby. The polycarbonate construction provides an excellent balance between weight and durability, crucial for maintaining the responsive handling characteristics of your Bandit whilst protecting internal components during the inevitable impacts that come with aggressive off-road driving. The bodyshell's aerodynamic design, enhanced by the integrated rear wing, helps stabilise the vehicle at higher speeds and during cornering, improving overall driving dynamics. Traxxas has perfected the mounting interface over years of development, ensuring that installation onto your existing Bandit chassis is straightforward and requires no modification to suspension geometry or electronics placement. The pre-painted finish using ProGraphix technology provides superior UV protection and colour retention compared to unpainted alternatives, meaning your buggy will maintain its vibrant orange appearance through extended outdoor use and exposure to British weather conditions. The thick polycarbonate material offers superior impact resistance, withstanding the punishment of high-speed crashes and rough terrain bashing that characterises RC buggy racing in the UK market. The integrated canopy sections provide complete body protection whilst maintaining excellent visibility of your on-board electronics during operation and maintenance checks.
