Key Features
- High-quality Polycarbonate Construction — The body is manufactured from premium polycarbonate material, which provides exceptional durability whilst remaining lightweight, a crucial balance for maintaining the performance characteristics of your 1/18 scale buggy during running sessions and competitive racing.
- Pre-Painted Finish — The Silver/Black paint scheme is factory-applied by ARRMA, eliminating the need for time-consuming hand-painting or spray finishing, which means you can install this body immediately without waiting for paint to cure or worrying about finishing quality.
- Pre-Decaled with Official ARRMA Vinyl Stickers — The body comes fully decorated with genuine ARRMA vinyl stickers that add authentic styling and visual appeal, creating that head-turning appearance that makes your RC buggy stand out at the track or during informal running sessions.
- Pre-Trimmed and Drilled — All windows, light details and mounting points come pre-trimmed and pre-drilled from the factory, meaning installation is straightforward and requires no specialist tools, cutting or drilling on your part, saving time and ensuring perfect fitment.
- Ready for Fast Installation — The combination of pre-painting, pre-decaling, pre-trimming and pre-drilling means this bodyshell is optimised for rapid installation, getting your upgraded TYPHON GROM back on the track or in the garden within minutes of unboxing.
Technical Performance
The TYPHON GROM Body represents ARRMA's commitment to engineering excellence at the 1/18 scale, where precision and lightweight construction are paramount to overall vehicle performance. The polycarbonate material selected for this bodyshell strikes an ideal balance between durability and weight; it withstands the rigours of off-road RC buggy running whilst contributing minimal mass to the overall vehicle, helping maintain the responsive handling and acceleration that the TYPHON GROM platform is known for. The body's design is compatible with multiple TYPHON GROM variants, including the 223S BLX 4x4 models (both Red and Silver variants) and the MEGA 380 Brushed 4x4 RTR versions available in Blue/Silver and Red/White configurations. This compatibility ensures that whether you're running a brushless racing setup or a brushed crawler-style configuration, this body will integrate seamlessly with your chassis. The pre-decaled finish means the factory paint has been applied with ARRMA's quality control standards, and the protective vinyl stickers are applied under factory conditions, ensuring consistent aesthetics that would be difficult to replicate through hand-application or custom painting.
