Key Features
- Ready-to-Mount Polycarbonate Shell — This premium polycarbonate body comes fully assembled with front and rear clipless latches, requiring zero trimming or preparation before installation, saving you valuable time and frustration compared to unpainted bodyshells that demand extensive finishing work.
- ProGraphix Paint Technology — Traxxas's ProGraphix system delivers professional-grade paint finishes with exceptional durability and colour vibrancy, ensuring your Slash looks showroom-fresh for months of bashful RC action on UK tracks and trails.
- Pre-Applied Decals — Detailed factory-applied decals are already precisely positioned on the body, eliminating the need for careful decal application and alignment, so your RC truck looks complete and polished immediately out of the bag.
- Clipless Mounting System — The innovative clipless design features integrated latches on both the front and rear, providing a cleaner aesthetic than traditional clip systems whilst making body swaps incredibly quick and hassle-free for regular maintenance or customisation.
- Slash VXL Specific Fitment — Engineered specifically for the Slash VXL variant of this legendary short-course truck platform, guaranteeing perfect alignment and secure mounting without modification or adapter parts.
- Stunning Green/Blue Colour Scheme — The eye-catching two-tone colour combination in green and blue makes this body visually distinctive, allowing your RC Slash to stand out whether you're racing competitively or enjoying casual weekend bashing sessions.
Technical Performance
This Traxxas body shell is crafted from premium polycarbonate material, chosen specifically for its combination of lightweight construction and excellent impact resistance—essential qualities for any RC short-course truck body that will encounter aggressive bashing, track racing, and the inevitable occasional collisions that come with high-speed RC driving. The clipless mounting system represents a significant engineering advancement over traditional body posts and clips, reducing overall weight and simplifying the mounting interface whilst maintaining rock-solid security during dynamic driving situations. The pre-painted finish using Traxxas's ProGraphix technology ensures UV resistance and colour longevity, protecting your investment against fading during outdoor use in all UK weather conditions. The body has been specifically engineered for compatibility with the Slash VXL, the brushless variant of Traxxas's legendary 1/10-scale short-course truck platform. Important compatibility note: if you are running an older Slash chassis without clipless mounting posts, you will need to obtain the appropriate mounting upgrade kit—part number 6940 for Slash 2WD models, or parts 6976 and 10125 for Slash 4X4 models—before this body can be installed.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Will this body fit my Slash chassis? — Yes, this body is engineered specifically for the Slash VXL variant. However, if you're running an older Slash model without clipless mounting posts, you will need to purchase the appropriate upgrade kit first: part 6940 for 2WD Slash models, or parts 6976 and 10125 for 4WD Slash models. This ensures compatibility with the clipless latch system.
- Do I need to trim or paint this body? — No, this is one of the greatest advantages of choosing a Traxxas pre-painted body. The ProGraphix paint is fully applied at the factory, and decals are pre-installed, meaning your body is ready to mount and use immediately out of the packaging—perfect for UK RC enthusiasts who want professional results without the time investment of finishing unpainted shells.
- What is the clipless mounting system and how does it work? — The clipless design features integrated latches on the front and rear of the body that connect directly to mounting points on your Slash chassis, eliminating the need for separate body posts and clips. This system is faster to install and remove, cleaner in appearance, and requires no traditional body clips that can get lost or damaged.
- Is this suitable for both racing and bashing? — Absolutely. The premium polycarbonate construction is durable enough for both competitive track racing and aggressive off-road bashing. The UV-resistant ProGraphix finish ensures colour longevity whether you're pushing your Slash hard at a UK RC racing event or enjoying weekend trail sessions.
- What makes this better than painting my own body shell? — Factory pre-painted bodies like this save significant time, deliver professional-grade paint quality that's difficult to achieve at home, and include perfectly-positioned decals that would be challenging to apply yourself. Plus, you get Traxxas's expertise and quality assurance built in.
