Technical Performance
The ARRMA GRANITE Clipless Painted Decaled Trimmed Body represents a perfect balance of aesthetics, durability and ease of use. Constructed from polycarbonate material, the body provides excellent structural integrity whilst remaining lightweight, crucial for maintaining the GRANITE 223S's handling characteristics and acceleration performance. The pre-painted red finish is applied to factory standards, providing a professional appearance that rivals any custom paint job, and the factory-applied vinyl decals add distinctive character without the need for additional customisation work. The clipless mounting system employed by ARRMA represents a significant advancement in body attachment technology, eliminating the need for traditional clip-based systems that can wear over time. This design allows for rapid body removal and installation, perfect for users who wish to rotate between different colour schemes or quickly access the chassis for maintenance and upgrades. The body's compatibility with the GRANITE 223S DSC 4X4 RTR platform (available in Blue, Gun Metal and Red variants) means you're investing in a part engineered specifically for your truck's dimensions and mounting points, guaranteeing perfect fitment every time. The pre-trimmed nature of the bodyshell ensures that windows, wheel arches and exhaust holes are already cut to precise tolerances, eliminating the need for post-purchase trimming work and reducing the risk of damage to the polycarbonate material during installation.

- Do I need to paint or decal this body myself? — No, this body is completely ready to use straight from the box. It arrives pre-painted in a stunning factory red finish and comes with factory-applied vinyl decals already applied. There is no need for any additional painting, decalling or finishing work, saving you significant time and ensuring a professional appearance.
- What is the difference between this and other GRANITE bodies? — The GRANITE Clipless Painted Decaled Trimmed Body features ARRMA's modern clipless mounting system, which offers faster and easier installation compared to older clip-based designs. This body also comes completely finished with factory paint and decals, whereas some alternative bodies may require finishing work. The red colour scheme offers a distinctive appearance that complements the aggressive GRANITE design beautifully.
- Will this body fit my older GRANITE truck? — This body is designed specifically for the GRANITE 223S models with clipless mounting.

- What material is this body made from? — The body is manufactured from polycarbonate, a high-quality plastic material chosen for its excellent strength-to-weight ratio, durability and impact resistance.
