Key Features
- Stamped Steel Construction — The fender plates and vents are manufactured from stamped steel rather than plastic, providing superior durability, authentic appearance, and the weight distribution that serious scale crawler builders demand. Steel components resist damage far better than plastic alternatives and maintain their shape through rigorous trail use.
- Four-Piece Design — The set includes four individual components that work together to create the complete front fender upgrade, allowing for full coverage of the front quarter panels and perfectly matching the scale proportions of the Land Rover Defender 4WD platform that the TRX-4 replicates.
- Functional Fender Vents — Beyond pure aesthetics, these components include realistic fender vents that add depth and visual interest to your crawler's bodywork, creating shadow lines and details that enhance the scale appearance from every angle and in photographs.
- Clipless Mounting System — The parts feature Fastrax's clipless mounting design, which means installation is straightforward without requiring additional fasteners or clips, making installation and removal simple for users performing regular maintenance or swapping body styles.
- Perfect Compatibility — These parts are engineered specifically for the Traxxas TRX-4 Defender 4WD RTR, ensuring perfect fitment with all colour variants including the Red, Silver, Green, and Sand versions of this popular ready to run RC platform.
- Professional Grade Finish — The stamped steel components come with a professional finish that complements the scale appearance of your TRX-4 Defender, and the material choice means these parts will retain their appearance through heavy use better than plastic alternatives would.
Technical Performance
The Fastrax TRX-4 Stamped Steel Front Fender Plate and Vents represent an investment in quality body components that elevate your 1/10 scale RC crawler experience.

The engineering behind these components shows in every detail: the precision stamping creates clean lines and accurate proportions that match the full-size Land Rover Defender that inspired the Traxxas TRX-4.

For anyone building a competition-grade TRX-4 Defender or simply wanting their crawler to look as impressive as it performs, these stamped steel components deliver authentic results. The clipless mounting system means installation is hassle-free, and the robust steel construction means these parts will outlast multiple plastic body upgrades.
