Overview
The ARRMA INFRACTION 4X4 All-Road 3S BLX Painted Decaled Trimmed Body is a premium replacement bodyshell designed for serious RC enthusiasts looking to refresh or customise their 1/8 scale all-road RC car. This is not a complete vehicle — it is a high-quality painted and fully trimmed body shell that transforms the look of your existing INFRACTION 4X4 platform. Whether you are a competitive racer seeking a fresh aesthetic for your next event, or a weekend basher wanting to give your RC car UK a new lease of life, this finished body delivers professional-grade presentation right out of the box.
Manufactured by ARRMA, a recognised leader in quality RC vehicles and parts, this body represents the engineering excellence and attention to detail that the brand is known for. The INFRACTION platform itself is celebrated in the RC community for its versatility as an all-road performer, capable of handling tarmac, gravel, and mixed terrain with equal competence. This painted and decaled body shell is the perfect way to upgrade your existing INFRACTION 4X4 3S BLX chassis without the expense of purchasing an entirely new ready to run RC car.
The black and red colour scheme provides a striking, aggressive appearance that stands out on the track or at the skate park. Every detail has been carefully finished — the body arrives fully trimmed with windows and vents pre-cut, decals expertly applied, and the entire shell painted to a high standard. Simply remove your current body, fit this new shell onto your existing INFRACTION chassis, and you are ready to run. This is the ideal solution for racers and enthusiasts who demand quality brushless RC parts and authentic ARRMA components.
Key Features
- Fully Painted Finish — The body arrives completely painted in a striking black and red colour scheme, eliminating the need for time-consuming paint work and ensuring a professional finish that rivals factory-painted models. This saves you hours of preparation and guarantees a high-quality result.
- Pre-Applied Decals — All graphics and branding decals are expertly applied at the factory, providing authentic ARRMA styling without the frustration of manual decal application. This attention to detail makes your RC car look like a genuine competition vehicle.
- Fully Trimmed Shell — Windows, windscreen vents, and all necessary openings are pre-cut and finished, so you do not need to spend time trimming or measuring. Simply install it on your chassis and you are ready to go.
- 1/8 Scale Polycarbonate Construction — The body is manufactured from durable polycarbonate material, offering excellent impact resistance and flex to protect against minor crashes whilst maintaining structural integrity during high-speed running.
- Direct Compatibility with INFRACTION 4X4 3S BLX — This body is engineered to fit perfectly on the ARRMA INFRACTION 223S DSC 4X4 RTR models, ensuring seamless installation and optimal aerodynamic performance. Compatibility is confirmed for Red/Black, Blue/Red, and Teal/Pink variants of the RTR platform.
- All-Road Versatility — Designed specifically for all-road performance, this body works equally well on asphalt, gravel, and mixed terrain, making it perfect for racers who like variety in their running venues.
- Premium Quality Control — As an official ARRMA part, every body undergoes rigorous quality checks before shipment, ensuring you receive a flawless product ready for immediate use.
Technical Performance
The INFRACTION 4X4 All-Road 3S BLX body is engineered from polycarbonate, a lightweight yet durable polymer material specifically chosen for RC applications. Polycarbonate offers superior impact resistance compared to traditional plastic, meaning your body can withstand the rigours of competitive racing and weekend bashing alike. The material has been proven across thousands of ARRMA vehicles to provide the perfect balance between protection and weight — crucial factors when running a brushless RC car that demands responsiveness. The fully painted and decaled finish is applied using automotive-grade techniques, ensuring colour durability and gloss retention even after extended outdoor use and exposure to UV light. The pre-trimmed design means all window apertures, vents, and chassis mounting points are precisely cut to factory specifications, eliminating the guesswork and potential for mistakes that come with manual trimming. This body is designed to maximise aerodynamic efficiency on the INFRACTION 4X4 platform, which itself delivers impressive performance thanks to its 3S LiPo compatibility and brushless drivetrain. The all-road configuration makes this body ideal for drivers who want to compete or bash on mixed terrain without worrying about whether their vehicle is optimised for one specific surface type.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Which ARRMA INFRACTION models is this body compatible with? — This body is specifically designed for the ARRMA 1/8 INFRACTION 223S DSC 4X4 RTR Street Bash platform. It is confirmed compatible with the Red/Black, Blue/Red, and Teal/Pink variants of this model. If you own an INFRACTION MEGA or VENDETTA platform, you will need a different body shell as they use different chassis dimensions.
- Is this a complete ready to run RC car? — No, this is a body shell only. It does not include the chassis, motor, ESC, battery, radio system, or any mechanical components. You must have an existing INFRACTION 4X4 3S BLX chassis to use this body. It is designed as a replacement or upgrade body for owners of these vehicles.
- Do I need to paint or trim this body myself? — No. This is a fully painted, decaled, and trimmed body shell ready for immediate installation. All windows are pre-cut, all graphics are pre-applied, and the entire shell arrives in showroom condition. Simply remove your old body and install this one on your chassis.
- What colour is this body? — This particular body arrives in a striking black and red colour scheme with authentic ARRMA decals applied. ARRMA offers this same body in alternative colours (Blue/Red and Teal/Pink) if you prefer a different aesthetic.
- Is this body durable enough for competitive racing? — Yes. The polycarbonate construction provides excellent durability for both competitive racing and casual bashing. Polycarbonate is specifically chosen for RC applications because it offers superior impact resistance and flex compared to standard plastic, protecting your investment whilst maintaining the responsiveness of your all-road RC car.
- Can I use this body on other ARRMA models? — No. This body is engineered specifically for the INFRACTION 4X4 3S BLX platform and will not fit other ARRMA models such as the VENDETTA or KRATON without significant modification. Always confirm compatibility with your specific chassis before purchasing.
- How long does it take to install this body? — Installation typically takes 10-15 minutes. You simply need to remove your existing body from your INFRACTION chassis and attach this new shell using the same mounting points. No special tools or technical knowledge is required.
- Is this suitable for beginners? — Yes, provided you already own an INFRACTION 4X4 3S BLX RTR vehicle. The body swap is straightforward and requires only basic familiarity with how your RC car is assembled. However, this is not a suitable product for someone just starting in the RC hobby, as you must have an existing compatible chassis. We recommend beginners purchase a complete ready to run RC car first.
