Overview

The Traxxas Body, Chevrolet Corvette Z06 (Clear, requires painting) is the perfect choice for RC enthusiasts who want to express their creativity and personalise their 4-Tec 2.0 RC car. Whether you're a seasoned competitor, a weekend basher, or exploring the world of RC cars in the UK for the first time, this clear body shell gives you complete creative control. From mild to wild, you choose the colour scheme and design, transforming a blank canvas into a stunning custom machine that reflects your unique style and personality.

This is not a pre-painted body—it's a professional-quality clear shell that requires painting, but that's precisely what makes it special.

It's fully trimmed and ready to paint, with everything you need included to get your build finished and on the track or bashing grounds.

Key Features

• 4-Tec 2.0 compatibility — Specifically designed for the Traxxas 4-Tec 2.0 platform, ensuring perfect fit and finish with this popular touring car chassis.

Frequently Asked Questions

• What paint should I use on this body? — Traxxas ProGraphix paint is specifically formulated for use on RC body shells like this one and delivers professional-quality results. ProGraphix paints are engineered to adhere properly to polycarbonate, provide excellent colour coverage, and resist chipping and fading during RC racing and bashing activities.
• Do I need any special tools to paint this body? — The body can be painted using standard spray painting equipment or airbrush systems. The included protective overspray film and window masking make the process straightforward. Most RC enthusiasts use either a hobby spray gun or airbrush for the best results, though some users report success with rattle-can spray paint.
• Is this suitable for beginners? — Yes, absolutely. Whilst painting requires some care and patience, this body is designed to be beginner-friendly. The pre-drilled holes, included mounting hardware, pre-applied protective film, and window masking all simplify the installation and painting process. If you're new to painting RC bodies, this is an excellent starting point with Traxxas ProGraphix paint to guide you.
• What chassis does this body fit? — This body is designed specifically for the Traxxas 4-Tec 2.0 on-road touring car chassis. It will not fit other chassis platforms without significant modification.
• Can I use regular car paint instead of ProGraphix? — Whilst some users experiment with alternative paints, Traxxas ProGraphix paint is specifically formulated for RC body shells and offers the best adhesion, flexibility, and durability on polycarbonate. Regular automotive paint may not adhere properly or flex with the body during impacts.
• How long does painting typically take? — Painting time varies depending on your chosen design, number of colours, and drying times between coats. Most hobbyists allow several hours for base coat application, and additional time for decal application and clear coat. Plan for a full day or weekend project to achieve professional results.
• What is included with the body? — The body arrives complete with decals, window masking, moulded accessories (side mirrors and spoiler), mounting hardware, and a protective overspray film already applied. You simply need to paint it and install it on your 4-Tec 2.0 chassis.
