Traxxas Body, Slash 4X4, ProGraphix (also fits Slash VXL & Slash 2WD) (graphics are printed, requires paint & final colour application)/ decal sheet TRX6933

Overview

The Traxxas Body, Slash 4X4, ProGraphix (TRX6933) is a premium polycarbonate bodyshell designed for customisation enthusiasts who want to create a truly unique RC short course truck. This is the perfect replacement or upgrade body for owners of Traxxas Slash 4X4, Slash VXL, and Slash 2WD models. Whether you're looking to refresh your existing RC car UK setup or personalise your bashers with custom colour schemes, the ProGraphix body offers an innovative solution that combines professional graphics with your own creative flair. This is an ideal choice for intermediate and advanced RC enthusiasts who appreciate quality construction and want to stand out at the track or during weekend RC car sessions.

What makes the Traxxas ProGraphix body system unique is the clever combination of pre-printed, fully painted detailed graphics on a clear polycarbonate base. This means you get the best of both worlds: intricate artwork and branding elements are already professionally painted and ready to go, whilst the main body colour remains clear, allowing you to choose your own colour scheme to match your personal style or team colours. This flexibility is rarely found in ready-to-run RC bodies, making the Slash 4X4 ProGraphix body a fantastic option for those who want professional results without compromising on individuality.

The body comes completely trimmed and ready for installation, with a protective overspray film applied during manufacture for added convenience and protection during transport and storage. Installation onto your Slash 4X4 or 2WD chassis is straightforward, and the clipless design means you won't struggle with complicated latch systems. Simply select the appropriate mounting latches for your specific model variant, apply your chosen Traxxas ProGraphix paint colour, and you'll have an RC car that looks like it came straight from the factory.

Key Features

• ProGraphix Pre-Painted Graphics — The detailed artwork and graphics are fully painted during manufacture, giving you a professional-quality base layer that would be expensive and time-consuming to create yourself. This means even if painting isn't your strongest skill, your RC car will still feature factory-quality graphic details.
• Clear Base for Custom Colour Application — Unlike traditional bodyshells that come in fixed colours, the Slash 4X4 ProGraphix body features a transparent polycarbonate base that allows you to spray your chosen colour underneath. This innovative approach gives you complete creative control whilst maintaining the quality graphics on top.
• Premium Polycarbonate Construction — Built from polycarbonate material, this body offers excellent durability and impact resistance during bashing and racing. Polycarbonate is the preferred material for RC bodyshells because it flexes rather than shatters, protecting your investment during crashes and hard impacts.
• Completely Trimmed and Ready to Install — No scissors required and no frustrating trimming work. The body arrives pre-trimmed for the Slash 4X4, Slash VXL, and Slash 2WD platforms, meaning you can get straight to painting and installation without wasting time with preparation work.
• Protective Overspray Film Applied — During manufacture, a protective film is applied to the body to prevent dust and damage during shipping and storage. This film is easily removed before you apply your Traxxas ProGraphix paint, saving you from potential defects straight out of the box.
• Clipless Latch Design — The body features a modern clipless mounting system that's easier to use than traditional latched designs. This makes body removal for maintenance, repairs, or battery changes quicker and more convenient during track sessions.
• Includes Decal Sheet — A full decal sheet is included in the package, giving you additional customisation options and allowing you to add even more personalisation to your RC short course truck without purchasing extras.
• Compatible with Multiple Slash Variants — This single body fits three different Traxxas Slash models: the Slash 4X4, Slash VXL, and Slash 2WD, making it a versatile option if you own multiple vehicles in the Slash range or are planning future upgrades.

Technical Performance

The Traxxas Slash 4X4 ProGraphix body is manufactured from high-quality polycarbonate, a material engineered specifically for RC vehicle applications because of its exceptional durability-to-weight ratio. At 1/10 scale, this bodyshell is engineered to fit seamlessly onto the proven Slash 4X4 short course truck platform, which is renowned throughout the RC car UK community for reliability and performance. The body material has been selected to withstand the rigours of competitive racing and recreational bashing, flexing on impact rather than cracking, which extends the operational life of your investment. The pre-painted graphics are applied using Traxxas's professional manufacturing processes, ensuring colour consistency and adhesion that matches factory standards. The polycarbonate construction maintains structural integrity whilst remaining lightweight, which is critical for maintaining the responsiveness and speed characteristics of the underlying Slash 4X4 chassis. The clipless mounting system reduces installation time and eliminates the risk of latch breakage that can occur with traditional body clip designs. When paired with Traxxas ProGraphix paint in your chosen colour, the finished result is a bodyshell that rivals professional race-level RC vehicles in appearance whilst maintaining the durability needed for regular use.

Frequently Asked Questions

• Is this body compatible with all Slash models? — This ProGraphix body is designed to fit the Traxxas Slash 4X4, Slash VXL, and Slash 2WD. However, you will need the correct mounting latches for your specific model: use TRX6940 for Slash 2WD models, or TRX6976 and TRX10125 for Slash 4X4 variants. Always verify compatibility with your exact model before purchasing.
• Do I need to paint this body? — Yes, this is not a ready-to-run body. The graphics are fully painted, but the main body is clear polycarbonate, so you must apply your chosen Traxxas ProGraphix paint colour to complete the bodyshell. This is actually a key feature, as it allows you to customise the colour whilst keeping the graphics factory-quality.
• What paint should I use? — Traxxas ProGraphix paint is specifically formulated for use with ProGraphix bodies and is recommended for the best results. The paint is engineered to adhere properly to polycarbonate and provide professional-quality finishes. You can purchase ProGraphix paint separately in various colours to suit your design preferences.
• Is this suitable for beginners in the RC hobby? — This body is best suited to intermediate RC enthusiasts who already own a Slash chassis and are comfortable with painting and customisation. If you're new to RC cars, you might prefer a ready-to-run body or a complete ready-to-run RC car UK package. However, if you enjoy customisation and want to develop painting skills, this is an excellent learning project.
• How do I install this body onto my Slash? — The body is completely trimmed and ready to install. Simply remove the protective overspray film, paint with your chosen Traxxas ProGraphix colour, allow to dry completely, and then attach using the appropriate mounting latches for your model. The clipless system makes attachment quick and tool-free.
• What is the difference between ProGraphix and standard Traxxas bodies? — ProGraphix bodies feature pre-printed, professionally painted graphics on a clear base, allowing you to choose your own main body colour whilst keeping the graphics factory-quality. Standard bodies typically come in fixed colours with applied graphics. The ProGraphix system is ideal for customisation enthusiasts and those wanting unique colour schemes.
• Is the decal sheet easy to apply? — Yes, the included decal sheet provides additional customisation options. Application follows standard RC decal practices: use decal solution or water to help position the decals, smooth out air bubbles, and allow to dry completely before handling. Many RC enthusiasts use the decals to add personalised details like race numbers or sponsor logos.
• How durable is polycarbonate? — Polycarbonate is specifically chosen for RC bodies because it's impact-resistant and flexible, rather than rigid and brittle like some alternative materials. During crashes and hard impacts, polycarbonate flexes to absorb energy rather than cracking, extending the life of your bodyshell significantly.
