Overview
The ARRMA GORGON Painted Decaled Trimmed Body Set in Blue is the ultimate replacement bodyshell for anyone looking to refresh their existing GORGON monster truck or completely transform its appearance with a stunning new colour scheme.

This is a ready-to-fit body solution that arrives pre-painted, pre-decaled, and pre-trimmed, meaning you can have your GORGON looking showroom-fresh within minutes of opening the box.
ARRMA has earned a formidable reputation for building tough, durable RC vehicles that can handle serious bashing and competitive use alike. The GORGON itself is one of the most respected 1/10 scale monster trucks in the hobby, and this body set maintains that commitment to quality and style. The vibrant blue colour scheme is eye-catching and distinctive, making your GORGON stand out at the track, at the bash spot, or anywhere else you choose to run it. Strong, hard-wearing construction combined with ARRMA's signature eye-catching design means you're getting a body that looks fantastic whilst offering the durability you need for consistent performance.
What sets this body set apart from basic bodyshells is the inclusion of a complete set of colour-coded components. You're not just getting a painted shell; you're receiving colour-coordinated parts that create a fully integrated, professional appearance throughout your entire vehicle. This comprehensive package approach means less hunting around for matching components and a more cohesive, finished look that reflects ARRMA's attention to detail.
Key Features
- High-Quality Polycarbonate Body Moulded from Tough Material — The bodyshell is manufactured from durable polycarbonate, a material recognised throughout the RC hobby for its impact resistance and longevity, ensuring your GORGON can handle the inevitable bumps and crashes that come with enthusiastic bashing and racing.
- Pre-Painted Head-Turning Paint Scheme — The body arrives with a professional factory finish in stunning blue, eliminating the need for you to purchase and apply paint yourself, which means you save time, money, and the hassle of masking and prep work that traditional body painting requires.
- Pre-Decaled with Detailed ARRMA Vinyl Stickers — Detailed vinyl decals are already applied to the bodyshell, adding stylish visual touches that define the ARRMA aesthetic and are far more durable than stickers applied at home, resisting peeling and fading through countless runs.
- Pre-Trimmed and Body Mounts Pre-Fitted for Fast Installation — The body arrives trimmed and ready to fit straight onto your vehicle with no cutting or complicated preparation required, meaning you can transition from unboxing to driving in a fraction of the time it would take with an untrimmed bodyshell.
- Colour-Coded Battery Tray — The included battery tray matches the blue colour scheme, creating visual cohesion throughout your vehicle and making the battery compartment blend seamlessly with the overall design aesthetic.
- Colour-Coded Bumper Set — Matching front and rear bumpers are included in the same blue colour scheme, ensuring your GORGON presents a unified, professional appearance from every angle.
- Colour-Coded Lower Diff/Gearbox Mount — This crucial chassis component arrives colour-matched to your body, maintaining visual consistency and creating that premium, fully-integrated look that separates a carefully assembled vehicle from a mismatched collection of parts.
- Colour-Coded Skid Plate Set — Protection for your chassis comes in matching blue, ensuring that even the protective elements of your vehicle contribute to the overall aesthetic rather than detracting from it.
- Four Colour-Coded Springs — The suspension springs are also colour-matched, demonstrating ARRMA's commitment to complete visual integration across every single component of this body set.
- Awesome Looks and Tough ARRMA Durability — This combination of striking aesthetics and proven durability means you can run hard with confidence, knowing your investment in ARRMA quality is protecting both your vehicle's appearance and its performance potential.
Technical Performance
The ARRMA GORGON is renowned throughout the RC community as a robust 1/10 scale monster truck platform, and this body set maintains the high standards ARRMA is recognised for. The polycarbonate construction offers the perfect balance between durability and weight, providing impact resistance without adding unnecessary mass to your vehicle. The pre-painted finish is applied using industrial-grade processes that deliver a far more durable and consistent result than hand painting, meaning your body will maintain its vibrant blue colour through countless runs in all weather conditions. The vinyl decals used throughout are specifically engineered for RC applications, utilising adhesive formulations and material thicknesses that resist peeling even when your GORGON encounters rough terrain, vegetation, or the occasional bash into obstacles. The pre-trimmed design means every window opening, access point, and mounting location has been precisely cut and validated for your specific GORGON chassis, ensuring perfect fitment every time. The inclusion of a complete colour-coded parts package transforms what could be a basic shell replacement into a comprehensive aesthetic upgrade that affects the entire visual presentation of your vehicle. Whether you're running a brushed or brushless GORGON, whether your battery is 2S LiPo, 3S LiPo, or another compatible chemistry, this body set integrates seamlessly with your existing mechanical components whilst providing the stunning visual transformation that captures the essence of ARRMA's legendary design language.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Which GORGON models is this body set compatible with? — This body set is compatible with a wide range of GORGON variants, including the GORGON 2WD RTA Kit, GORGON 2WD RTR models, and GORGON MEGA 550 variants. Verify your specific GORGON model against the compatibility list to ensure proper fitment, though the standardised GORGON chassis platform means compatibility across the full product range.
- Do I need any tools or technical knowledge to fit this body? — No. The body arrives pre-trimmed with all mounting points already drilled and prepared. You simply remove your old body and slide the new one onto your GORGON chassis. Even complete beginners to RC can perform this swap in just a few minutes with no special tools or technical knowledge required.
- Is this suitable for beginners? — Absolutely. Body replacement is one of the simplest modifications any RC owner can perform, and this set actually makes it easier by including all the colour-coded components you might want to upgrade simultaneously. Even if you're brand new to the hobby, you can confidently freshen your GORGON's appearance with this body set.
- Will this body work with my current GORGON electronics and mechanics? — Yes, completely. This is purely an aesthetic upgrade that works with any GORGON chassis you already own. Your existing motor, ESC, battery, suspension, wheels, and all other mechanical components will work perfectly with this new body shell.
- How does the pre-painted finish compare to painting a body myself? — The factory finish is vastly superior to hand painting for most hobbyists. ARRMA uses industrial spray equipment, multiple paint layers, and controlled environments to achieve a smooth, consistent, durable finish that resists chipping, fading, and peeling far better than amateur paint applications. Plus you eliminate the time and cost of purchasing paint, masking materials, and spending hours on preparation.
- Why should I choose the blue colour scheme? — The vibrant blue is an eye-catching choice that makes your GORGON distinctive and visible on the track or at the bash spot. It's a colour that photographs well, stands out against natural terrain, and perfectly complements ARRMA's design language. Of course, ARRMA offers this body set in multiple colours, so you can choose whichever shade appeals most to your personal style.
- What makes this better than a basic bodyshell without colour-coded parts? — A complete body set with colour-coded components transforms your entire vehicle into a cohesive, professionally-finished machine. Rather than having a new blue body with mismatched black or silver chassis components, everything coordinates visually, creating that premium ARRMA appearance throughout your vehicle.
- Can I use this body with different sized wheels or suspension modifications? — Yes. The body is specifically designed for the GORGON chassis and clearances, so any mechanical modifications you've made to your suspension geometry or drivetrain will work fine. Wheel size and tyre choice are independent of the body, so you have complete freedom there.
