Frequently Asked Questions

• Is this clear body shell suitable for beginners to RC car building in the UK? — This Killer Body shell is ideally suited for intermediate to experienced RC builders who have experience with painting and assembly. The untrimmed design and requirement to paint the shell means you'll need access to proper painting equipment and some experience with RC body preparation. If you're new to RC cars, you may prefer a ready-to-run RC solution to start with, then progress to clear body shells as you develop your skills.
• What painting equipment do I need to finish this body shell? — You'll need specialist polycarbonate RC body paint, painting brushes or an airbrush setup depending on your preferred finish quality, and a clear protective coat. Many experienced RC builders recommend airbrush painting for the most professional results, though brush painting is possible with patience and proper technique. Ensure adequate ventilation or a spray booth when applying paint.
• Will this body shell fit my existing 1:10 touring car chassis? — The Nissan Motul Autech GT-R 2016 shell has a 257mm wheelbase and 195mm width, making it compatible with standard 1/10 scale touring car platforms. However, since this shell comes untrimmed with no pre-drilled mounting holes, you'll need to position and create mounting points yourself to ensure proper fitment to your specific chassis. This is part of the customisation process that experienced builders enjoy.
• What makes Killer Body shells different from other RC body manufacturers? — Killer Body is recognised for exceptional attention to detail and authentic scale proportions. This particular GT-R 2016 shell captures the aggressive racing character of the full-size Motul Autech race car with precise styling cues.

Their shells are favoured by serious RC enthusiasts who demand authenticity and build quality.
• How long does assembly and painting typically take? — Full completion of this body shell project typically takes 20-40 hours depending on your painting technique and attention to detail. This includes preparation, painting, decal application, and assembly of all plastic components. The detailed instruction sheet provided guides you through each step to ensure professional results.
• Can I use decals from other RC body shells with this Killer Body? — This shell includes a basic decal sheet specifically designed for the Nissan Motul Autech GT-R 2016. While you could apply decals from other sources, the provided sheet is engineered to match the proportions and details of this particular body shell for authentic appearance.
• Is this RC body shell durable for competitive racing use? — Yes, the polycarbonate construction provides excellent durability for touring car racing applications. The 1/10 scale proportions and untrimmed design allow you to create a competition-grade race car. However, like all RC body shells, it will eventually require repairs or replacement after heavy use or crash damage.
