Traxxas Maxx RC Body ProGraphix Graphics Printed Requires Paint TRX8911X

Overview

Transform your Traxxas Maxx into a head-turning custom machine with the Traxxas Body, Maxx, ProGraphix bodyshell (TRX8911X). This is the ultimate solution for RC car enthusiasts across the UK who want to personalise their ride with their own choice of colours. The ProGraphix body features beautifully printed graphics that are fully detailed and ready to go, but the remainder of the bodyshell is clear, giving you complete creative freedom to choose your own main body colour. Whether you're a weekend basher, a competitive racer, or simply discovering the world of RC car customisation for the first time, this bodyshell offers an accessible and professional way to achieve instant, custom results without requiring masking tape or complex painting techniques.

The Traxxas ProGraphix system is engineered specifically for buyers who want genuine Traxxas quality and reliability but crave individuality. Simply select your favourite colour from the Traxxas ProGraphix paint range and spray it onto the clear areas of the body. The detailed graphics remain protected underneath, so when you spray the final colour on the inside of the body, the pre-printed graphics show through perfectly. The result is a bespoke, professional-looking custom finish that looks like you spent hours masking and painting, when in reality the whole job takes just minutes and dries in fifteen. This is how ready to run RC personalisation should be.

If you own a Traxxas Maxx RC truck and want to refresh its appearance, upgrade to a different style, or simply express your creativity, the TRX8911X ProGraphix body delivers exceptional value and ease of use. It comes completely trimmed with pre-drilled body post holes for hassle-free installation, and includes a protective overspray film to keep the graphics pristine during painting. Decals are also included in the box, so you have everything needed to complete your custom look. This is the ideal upgrade for any Maxx owner seeking a quick, professional custom body without the headaches of traditional spray-and-mask techniques.

Key Features

• Clear Body Areas for Custom Colour — The majority of the bodyshell is completely clear, allowing you to apply your own colour choice via spray paint to create a truly personalised look that matches your style and preferences.
• Easy Professional Results — No masking tape, no complicated stencilling, and no advanced painting skills required; simply spray your chosen Traxxas ProGraphix paint colour onto the clear areas and achieve instant professional results in minutes.
• Quick Drying Time — The paint dries in approximately fifteen minutes, so you can move from bare body to finished custom look faster than traditional RC car body painting methods.
• Completely Trimmed and Ready to Install — The bodyshell arrives fully trimmed with no excess plastic to cut away, and features pre-drilled body post holes that align perfectly with your Maxx chassis for immediate installation without modification.
• Protective Overspray Film Included — A protective film is applied to the body to shield the graphics during your painting process, ensuring the pre-printed details remain crisp and clean when you peel it away.
• Complete Decal Sheet Included — Every ProGraphix body comes with a full decal sheet of authentic Traxxas logos, window graphics, grille details, and other finishing touches to complete your custom design.
• Genuine Traxxas Quality and Fit — Built by Traxxas with precision tooling to ensure perfect fitment on your Maxx, using durable plastic that withstands the demands of RC bashing and racing.
• Versatile Colour Combination Options — You can spray a single colour across the entire clear area for a classic look, or use multiple colours on different sections of the body for a more striking two-tone or three-tone custom finish.

Technical Performance

The Traxxas Body, Maxx, ProGraphix bodyshell is engineered from high-quality plastic specifically formulated for RC applications, offering excellent durability and impact resistance during aggressive off-road driving and high-speed bashers. The body material is lightweight yet robust enough to withstand the stresses of jumping, landing, and general rough terrain use typical of Maxx ownership. The ProGraphix system represents Traxxas's commitment to making customisation accessible; rather than supplying a blank clear body that requires complete custom artwork planning, the pre-printed graphics provide a professional starting point that elevates your build. The bodyshell's design maintains perfect aerodynamics and chassis compatibility with the Maxx platform, ensuring no performance compromise when upgrading from the original factory colour option. All trimming and body post hole placement is factory-completed to Traxxas's exacting standards, meaning installation is straightforward and requires no tools beyond a standard body reamer if you wish to adjust post hole size. The included decal sheet uses authentic Traxxas graphics and colours, ensuring your finished build maintains the professional Traxxas brand appearance. Paint compatibility is optimised for Traxxas ProGraphix paint formulations, which are designed to spray smoothly and adhere perfectly to the clear polycarbonate body material. The protective overspray film keeps the graphics pristine throughout the painting process and peels away cleanly once your colour coats are dry. Whether you're building a show-quality custom Maxx or simply refreshing a bashed machine, this bodyshell delivers professional results with minimal effort.

Frequently Asked Questions

• What is the difference between ProGraphix and a clear body? — ProGraphix bodies come with detailed graphics already printed and fully painted, providing a professional design template that you simply colour in with your chosen main colour. Clear bodies, by contrast, are entirely blank, giving you complete creative freedom but requiring you to plan and execute the entire design yourself. ProGraphix is ideal if you want professional results quickly; clear bodies suit experienced builders who enjoy full custom artwork.
• Does this body fit my Traxxas Maxx? — Yes, the TRX8911X is specifically engineered for the Traxxas Maxx platform and features pre-drilled body post holes that align perfectly with your Maxx chassis. Installation requires no modification and takes just minutes.
• Do I need special paint for the ProGraphix body? — Traxxas ProGraphix paint is optimised for use with ProGraphix bodies and offers superior adhesion, finish quality, and drying speed. You can choose from Traxxas colours including red, metallic blue, white, and many others available separately. Standard hobby paints may not adhere as reliably to the polycarbonate material.
• Can I use multiple colours on one ProGraphix body? — Absolutely. Many builders create striking two-tone or three-tone finishes by masking different sections of the clear area and spraying different colours. Paint the entire body with white first, then mask and add your secondary colours for optimal colour vibrancy.
• Is the ProGraphix body suitable for beginners? — Yes, the ProGraphix system is specifically designed for ease of use. The pre-printed graphics eliminate the need for masking or stencilling, making it ideal for newcomers to RC car customisation. If you can operate a spray can, you can achieve professional results.
• How long does painting take? — Most builders complete a single-colour ProGraphix body in three to five minutes of actual spraying time. The paint dries in approximately fifteen minutes, so you can apply decals and install the body on your Maxx within thirty minutes of opening the can.
• Does the protective overspray film stay on during painting? — Yes, the protective film remains on the bodyshell while you paint. It shields the pre-printed graphics from overspray and paint mist. Once your colour coats are dry, you simply peel it away to reveal pristine graphics underneath.
• What decals are included? — The decal sheet includes all Traxxas logos, window graphics, grille details, and other finishing touches needed to complete your custom build to factory-quality standards. Decal application takes just a few minutes and can be done wet or dry depending on your preference.
• Can I repaint a ProGraphix body if I change my mind about the colour? — Yes. You can carefully remove the old paint by wet sanding and repainting with your new colour choice. The printed graphics underneath are durable and will withstand this process.
• Is this body waterproof? — The body material is water-resistant and can handle casual water crossings and wet conditions typical of RC off-road use. However, RC cars are not designed for submersion, and prolonged water exposure should be avoided to protect electronic components inside the chassis.
