The pre-applied graphics and professional paint finish mean your RC car will look showroom-fresh from the moment you mount it, with no additional painting or decal work required.

Key Features

• ProGraphix Paint Finish — The body features Traxxas's renowned ProGraphix premium paint technology, which delivers a deep, vibrant colour with exceptional durability that resists fading even under intense UV exposure and repeated outdoor use. This is factory-applied, so you get a flawless finish that would be extremely difficult to achieve at home.
• Pre-Applied Decals — High-quality graphics are professionally applied before shipment, ensuring perfect alignment and crisp detail that catches the eye on the track or at the bash spot. You won't find peeling or misaligned decals here, as each body undergoes quality control before leaving the factory.
• Tough Polycarbonate Construction — The body is manufactured from premium polycarbonate plastic, which offers an outstanding balance of impact resistance and light weight. This material flexes on impact rather than shattering, absorbing energy from crashes and keeping your RC car looking good even after aggressive bashings.
• Fully Assembled and Ready to Mount — Unlike many aftermarket RC body shells, this one arrives completely assembled with all internal support structures installed. There's no need to assemble body posts, glue mounting brackets, or spend hours preparing the shell — it's literally ready to bolt onto your XRT chassis.
• Pre-Installed Front & Rear Body Supports — Heavy-duty body support posts are factory-welded into place at both the front and rear of the shell, providing precise geometry and alignment. These supports ensure the body sits perfectly on your chassis without any rocking or movement during driving.
• Clipless Mounting System — The body uses Traxxas's innovative clipless mounting design, which means you can remove and replace the shell without any body clips, posts, or fasteners. Simply lift the body straight up and it releases — perfect for quick battery changes or switching between different shell designs.
• Roof & Hood Skid Pads — Pre-installed protective pads on the roof and hood reduce scratching and damage when the vehicle rolls or impacts obstacles at high speed. These are essential for protecting your investment and keeping the bodywork looking pristine after intense driving sessions.

Technical Performance

This body shell is engineered specifically for the Traxxas XRT 1/7-scale truggy platform, one of the most advanced and capable RC vehicles available in the UK market today. The polycarbonate construction provides an ideal weight-to-strength ratio, ensuring minimal impact on your XRT's performance whilst maximising durability during aggressive driving. The Rock n' Roll design incorporates aerodynamic bodywork that complements the XRT's high-performance engineering, whether you're running it on a competition track or in rough off-road terrain. The fully assembled construction with pre-installed supports and skid pads means the body is perfectly balanced and aligned with zero assembly variation — something you simply cannot achieve with cheaper, flat-pack alternatives. The clipless mounting system uses Traxxas's proven quick-release technology, allowing tool-free body removal in seconds, which is invaluable when you need to change LiPo batteries or switch body shells between sessions. The ProGraphix paint and pre-applied decals are UV-resistant and specifically formulated to withstand the punishment of outdoor RC racing and bashing, maintaining their appearance far longer than budget paint finishes.

Frequently Asked Questions

• Is the Traxxas XRT Rock n' Roll body easy to install on my RC truck? — Absolutely. The body arrives fully assembled with all mounting hardware pre-installed, and the clipless mounting system means you can have it mounted in under two minutes with zero tools required. Simply lift off your old body and slide this one on — it's one of the easiest body swaps you can perform on any RC vehicle in the UK.
• Will the paint and decals last, or will they chip and peel after a few bashes? — The ProGraphix paint finish is specifically formulated for durability in harsh outdoor conditions and repeated impacts. It's UV-resistant and far more resilient than budget alternatives, though like any painted surface, it will show signs of wear with heavy use. The pre-applied decals are professionally applied at the factory, so they won't peel or lift like decals applied by hand. Minor scuffs are normal with aggressive driving, but the finish holds up exceptionally well compared to other aftermarket body shells available in the UK.
• Does this body shell fit all XRT models, or just specific ones? — This body is designed specifically for Traxxas XRT vehicles and is compatible with the XRT VXL-8S and XRT Ultimate models in all colour variants. If you own a different XRT generation or variant, please check compatibility before purchasing. The clipless mounting system works across all compatible XRT models, so you can swap this body between different XRT chassis if you own multiple vehicles.
• What makes this different from a standard painted body shell? — This body arrives completely assembled with pre-installed body supports and skid pads, whereas standard painted shells typically require assembly of internal components. The clipless mounting system is also exclusive to Traxxas XRT bodies and eliminates the need for body clips or fasteners. Additionally, the ProGraphix paint and professional decal application deliver a finish quality that's difficult to match with aftermarket painted shells from other manufacturers.
• Can I use this body shell with my older XRT model? — Compatibility is confirmed for XRT VXL-8S and XRT Ultimate models. Older XRT generations may have different mounting geometry. We recommend checking your chassis specifications or contacting our team at RC Model Shop before purchasing if you're unsure about compatibility with your specific XRT variant.
• Is the body shell waterproof, or will water damage the electronics if I drive through puddles? — The polycarbonate body shell itself is water-resistant and won't be damaged by water. However, water can still enter the chassis and damage electronics if you drive through deep water or submerge the vehicle. The body alone does not provide full waterproofing of the entire vehicle — you need a fully waterproofed ESC and motor system for that. Use caution when driving in wet conditions and ensure your electronics are properly sealed.
