Overview

Transform your RC driving experience with the Traxxas Body, XRT Ultimate, Green (painted, decals applied) — a premium replacement bodyshell designed for the serious RC enthusiast who demands authentic styling and professional-quality finishes.

Available in eye-catching green with fully applied professional decals, this bodyshell combines aggressive styling with practical engineering that matters when you're pushing your 1/6 scale truggy to its limits.

This is not a basic bodyshell — it's a fully-assembled, ready-to-mount component engineered by Traxxas to the same exacting standards you'd expect from the manufacturer of championship-winning RC vehicles. The XRT Ultimate body represents the pinnacle of ProGraphix paint technology, featuring premium automotive-grade finishes that resist fading, chipping and the everyday wear that comes with serious bashful driving.

RC model bodies are often the first thing people notice when they see your vehicle in action, and the XRT Ultimate in green makes an unmistakable statement of quality and intent. This body is manufactured from tough polycarbonate material that provides the durability you need for rough terrain, whilst the pre-installed body supports and skid pads eliminate the guesswork from installation and ensure a secure, clipless mounting system that works perfectly with XRT platform vehicles.

Key Features

• ProGraphix Premium Paint Finish — Traxxas ProGraphix paint represents the highest standard in RC body finishing, delivering showroom-quality colour and gloss that resists UV fading and maintains its appearance through countless hours of driving whether on track or in the bash pit.
• Professional Pre-Applied Decals — The bodyshell arrives with all decals already expertly applied, saving you hours of detailed work and ensuring a factory-perfect finish that looks authentic and professional from the moment you unbox it.
• Tough Polycarbonate Construction — The body is manufactured from durable polycarbonate material that provides excellent impact resistance and flexibility, meaning your XRT can handle crashes and rough terrain without the body cracking or shattering like lower-quality alternatives.
• Fully Pre-Assembled Ready to Mount — Unlike basic body shells that require separate components, this body arrives completely assembled with all support structures and mounting hardware already integrated, dramatically reducing setup time and complexity.
• Front and Rear Body Supports Included — Pre-installed body support brackets are engineered to hold the shell securely in place whilst maintaining the XRT's styling and aerodynamic profile, eliminating rattles and ensuring consistent fitment.
• Roof and Hood Skid Pads — Protective skid pads on the roof and hood prevent damage to the painted surface during rollovers and crashes, which are an inevitable part of RC driving, especially when tackling challenging terrain in the UK.
• Clipless Mounting System — The body mounting system uses clipless technology that makes removal and reinstallation quick and tool-free, perfect for swapping bodies, performing maintenance, or replacing a damaged shell without frustration.
• 1/6 Scale Stadium Truggy Proportions — Designed specifically for the XRT Ultimate platform, the body features authentic stadium truck styling with aggressive lines and realistic proportions that match the performance capabilities of this serious 1/6 scale RC vehicle.
• Genuine Traxxas Replacement Part — As an official Traxxas part, this body is engineered to OEM specifications and quality standards, ensuring perfect compatibility with your XRT platform and maintaining the value and authenticity of your RC model.
• Compatible with Multiple XRT Variants — This body shell works with the XRT Ultimate platform as well as various XRT VXL-8S models in different colours, providing flexibility if you're building or upgrading multiple vehicles within the XRT family.

Technical Performance

The Traxxas XRT Ultimate body represents cutting-edge engineering in the 1/6 scale stadium truck and truggy category, a vehicle class that demands absolute durability and precision fitment. Constructed from premium polycarbonate, this material delivers the ideal balance between weight savings and impact resistance — critical factors when operating a high-performance 1/6 scale RC vehicle that can reach extreme speeds and encounter aggressive terrain. The polycarbonate formulation used throughout Traxxas bodies is UV-resistant and maintains its flexibility and strength across a wide temperature range, making it suitable for year-round driving in the UK climate from cold winter conditions to hot summer tracks. The body measures up perfectly to XRT Ultimate and XRT VXL-8S chassis dimensions, providing seamless fitment without modification or adjustment required. The integrated body supports use a clipless mounting system engineered to withstand the forces generated by high-speed cornering, jumps, and impacts whilst maintaining consistent pressure against the chassis without over-tightening or creating stress points. Roof and hood skid pads are moulded into the bodyshell during manufacturing, ensuring they remain securely bonded and will not separate or peel off during driving. The ProGraphix paint system employs automotive-grade pigments and clear coat technology that provides UV protection, chemical resistance to fuel, nitro and electric fuel residues, and mechanical durability against abrasion from grass, dirt and track surfaces. This body shell is a direct replacement component, not a cosmetic upgrade — it maintains all the airflow characteristics and aerodynamic properties of the original XRT design whilst offering the choice of colour and custom branding through the decal application.

Frequently Asked Questions

• Is this body compatible with my Traxxas XRT model? — Yes, this body is engineered as a replacement part for the XRT Ultimate platform and is also compatible with several XRT VXL-8S variants including the green, black, blue and orange versions, as detailed in the compatibility specification. Always verify your exact model number before ordering to ensure proper fitment.
• What makes Traxxas ProGraphix paint better than standard body paint? — ProGraphix represents Traxxas's premium automotive-grade paint technology that combines superior pigmentation, UV-resistant clear coat, and mechanical durability. This means your green bodyshell will maintain its vibrant colour through hundreds of hours of driving without fading, and resist chipping and scratching better than budget paint systems. The pre-applied decals are bonded to this finish with professional-grade adhesive, eliminating the risk of decals peeling or lifting during use.
• Do I need any tools or experience to fit this body to my XRT? — No, this body is specifically designed for tool-free installation thanks to the clipless mounting system. The body supports are pre-installed and ready to mount directly onto your chassis — an experienced RC enthusiast can swap the body in minutes without technical knowledge, making this an ideal choice for buyers who want quick customisation without mechanical complexity.
• What is the advantage of pre-applied decals compared to applying them myself? — Pre-applied decals ensure factory-perfect alignment, eliminate air bubbles, and guarantee professional finish quality that matches the original design intent. Applying decals to a painted surface requires skill and patience; Traxxas handles this in their production facility where precision equipment and trained technicians ensure flawless results that you simply cannot achieve with manual application.
• Are the roof and hood skid pads essential? — The roof and hood skid pads serve critical protective functions — they prevent direct impact to the painted surface during rollovers and crashes, which are inevitable when driving an RC vehicle seriously. Without these pads, the paint would suffer visible damage and scratches with every rough landing, so Traxxas integrated them into the design to maintain the body's appearance through real-world bashful driving.
• Can I use this body if I don't have the exact XRT model listed? — The body is engineered specifically for the XRT Ultimate and compatible XRT VXL-8S models. Attempting to fit it to other platforms may result in poor fitment, alignment issues, or risk of damage to both the body and chassis. Check the compatibility list carefully or contact RC Model Shop for confirmation if you're uncertain about your specific model.
• How durable is polycarbonate compared to other body materials? — Polycarbonate is the industry standard for performance RC bodies because it combines impact resistance with light weight and flexibility. Unlike rigid plastic or resin alternatives, polycarbonate can flex and absorb shock energy from crashes without cracking, then return to its original shape. This makes it ideal for high-speed truggy driving where crashes and rollovers are part of the experience.
• What should I do if my body becomes damaged? — The entire body shell is removable thanks to the clipless mounting system, so you can simply swap in a replacement without affecting your chassis or components. Minor paint scratches can be touched up with matching paint, but for significant damage, replacement bodies like this are the practical solution that keeps your RC vehicle looking showroom-fresh.
