The ARRMA Granite GROM Body in Clear is the perfect choice for RC enthusiasts across the UK who want to create a truly custom painted look for their ARRMA 1/18 scale RC vehicle. This high-quality replacement bodyshell is designed specifically for the ARRMA Granite GROM range, offering you the opportunity to express your creativity and personalise your ready to run RC car with your own unique colour scheme and design.

Constructed from tough polycarbonate material, this bodyshell combines durability with the clarity needed for professional-looking custom paint jobs. The clear finish allows you to paint directly onto the shell whilst protecting your underlying chassis and mechanics from damage during both painting and off-road bashings. For RC enthusiasts who want maximum control over their vehicle's appearance without the constraints of pre-painted options, the Granite GROM Clear Body is an ideal solution. It's compatible with multiple versions of the ARRMA Granite GROM MEGA 380 brushed 4x4 monster truck, making it a versatile upgrade or replacement option for your collection.
RC car bodies are a fundamental part of the hobby, and having access to quality replacement shells means you can experiment with different paint schemes, repair damage, or simply refresh your vehicle's look without significant expense. This product comes complete with everything you need to get started on your customisation project, including vinyl decals, window masks, and protective film to ensure a professional finish every time.
Key Features
- Tough Polycarbonate Construction — The bodyshell is manufactured from high-quality polycarbonate material that provides exceptional impact resistance and durability, protecting your RC car's chassis during bashings and crashes while withstanding the stresses of off-road driving without cracking or breaking easily.
- Clear Unpainted Finish — The clear body allows you to create a completely custom painted look tailored to your personal preferences, giving you total creative control over your vehicle's appearance and enabling professional-quality results without the limitations of pre-painted designs.
- Included Granite GROM Vinyl Decal Sheet — A complete set of vinyl decals is provided to add authentic ARRMA branding and detail to your custom paint job, allowing you to achieve a polished, finished appearance that matches the quality of factory-painted bodies.
- Pre-Cut High-Quality Vinyl Window Masks — The package includes professional-grade vinyl masks that are already cut to fit the Granite GROM body perfectly, saving you significant time and effort during the masking process and ensuring clean, precise paint lines around windows and openings.
- Pre-Trimmed for Fast Installation — The body comes pre-trimmed and ready to fit directly onto your Granite GROM chassis without requiring additional cutting, sanding, or modification, allowing you to install your custom paint job quickly and get back to driving.
- Protective Over-Spray Film Included — A special protective film is provided to shield areas of the body during painting, enabling fast and easy custom painting whilst preventing overspray damage to unwanted areas and ensuring a professional finish.
Technical Performance
This Granite GROM Clear Body is engineered specifically for the ARRMA 1/18 scale platform, making it an exact fit for all compatible Granite GROM MEGA 380 brushed 4x4 monster truck variants.

The body's clear finish provides superior protection for your vehicle's mechanics whilst offering the transparency needed for accurate paint application. The pre-trimmed edges and professional-quality vinyl masks included in the package demonstrate ARRMA's commitment to making the customisation process accessible to all skill levels, from beginners attempting their first paint job to experienced modellers creating competition-grade finishes. The inclusion of window masks and protective over-spray film means you can achieve clean, professional results without investing in expensive masking tape and protective materials separately.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Is this clear body suitable for beginners new to RC car customisation? — Absolutely. The Granite GROM Clear Body is ideal for beginners because it comes with pre-cut vinyl window masks and protective over-spray film, eliminating the need for complex preparation work. The pre-trimmed design means installation is straightforward, and the included decals provide guidance for creating a polished finished appearance. Many new RC enthusiasts find that starting with a clear body and custom paint scheme is an excellent way to develop skills before attempting more advanced modifications.
- What ARRMA Granite GROM models is this body compatible with? — This clear body is specifically designed for and compatible with the ARRMA 1/18 Granite GROM MEGA 380 brushed 4x4 monster truck, including the red variant (C-ARA2102T2), the blue/red variant (C-ARA2102T1), and the green variant (C-ARA2102T3). Always verify your specific model number before purchasing to ensure correct fitment.
- Do I need any additional tools or materials to paint this body? — You'll need RC-grade paint suitable for polycarbonate bodyshells, which is available from most UK RC retailers including RC Model Shop. The package includes vinyl masks and protective film, but you may want to invest in quality masking tape, spray equipment or airbrush supplies depending on your preferred painting method. Many RC enthusiasts recommend using specialised polycarbonate paint for best adhesion and durability.
- Will this body fit my current Granite GROM chassis without modification? — Yes, the body is pre-trimmed specifically for the Granite GROM platform and should fit directly onto your chassis without requiring additional cutting or modification. However, always test fit the body before painting to ensure proper alignment and clearance, particularly if your chassis has been modified with upgraded parts or different wheels.
- What makes polycarbonate a better choice than plastic for RC bodies? — Polycarbonate offers superior impact resistance compared to standard plastic, meaning it's less likely to crack or shatter when your RC car crashes or impacts obstacles during off-road driving. This durability translates to longer body life and better protection for your vehicle's internal mechanics, making it the preferred material for serious RC enthusiasts who want reliability and longevity.
- Can I use this body on other ARRMA models? — This body is designed specifically for the 1/18 Granite GROM platform and is not compatible with other ARRMA models or scales. Using it on incompatible vehicles will result in poor fit, potential damage to both body and chassis, and unsafe driving conditions. Always match bodies to their designated models.
