Key Features
- Classic VW Bug Styling with Baja Flair — This body captures the iconic silhouette of the legendary Volkswagen Baja Bug, complete with authentic period details that make it instantly recognisable and genuinely cool. The design maintains the spirit of the original 1/10 version whilst being perfectly proportioned for the 1/28 micro scale, ensuring visual impact at any viewing distance.
- Officially Licensed by Volkswagen — This is genuine, authorised Volkswagen product design, not a generic copy. The official licensing ensures authenticity and quality that respects the legendary vehicle heritage, giving you confidence you're purchasing a legitimate product.
- Simulated Rear Engine Cage Detail — Just like the full-size Baja Bug, this body features detailed simulated engine cage detailing at the rear, complete with authentic louvers and protective framework. This level of detail significantly enhances visual authenticity and demonstrates Pro-Line's commitment to accuracy.
- Optional Add-on Spoiler — The body is designed to accept an optional rear wing/spoiler, allowing you to customise the aerodynamic appearance further. This modular approach means you can match your preferred aesthetic, whether you want pure vintage simplicity or modern racing aggression.
- Flared Fenders for Authentic Proportions — The widened, flared fenders are signature to the Baja Bug design and provide authentic visual impact. These distinctive fenders give the body a commanding, purposeful stance that transforms how your Micro-T platform appears.
- Crystal Clear Polycarbonate Construction — Made from lightweight yet durable polycarbonate material, this body provides excellent clarity for painting whilst offering structural strength. Polycarbonate is the industry standard for RC car bodies because it balances flexibility (for impact resistance), durability, and weight efficiency.
- Paint-Then-Peel Overspray Film Built-in — The body arrives with pre-applied protective film that you paint over, then simply peel away to reveal perfect paint lines without overspray. This professional feature eliminates the need for tape masking and ensures show-quality results, making the painting process significantly easier and producing superior final results.
- Precision Window Masks Included — High-quality window masks are supplied to protect all transparent areas during painting. These masks ensure you can spray your colours without worrying about overspray on the windows, achieving clean, professional-looking results every time.
- Detailed Decal Sheet Included — Pro-Line provides a comprehensive decal sheet featuring two complete hood and door graphic schemes. These factory-designed graphics are high-quality and help complete the authentic Baja Bug look, though you're free to create your own custom schemes if preferred.
- Perfect Fit for Losi Micro-T — This body is engineered specifically for the Losi Micro-T 1/28 platform, ensuring precise fitment, proper weight distribution, and compatibility with all Micro-T mounting points. No modifications or adapters are necessary.
- Made in the USA Since 1982 — Pro-Line has been manufacturing quality RC bodies for over four decades, establishing a reputation for excellence. Their manufacturing expertise and quality control are reflected in every aspect of this product, from fit and finish to paint compatibility and durability.
Technical Performance
The VW Baja Bug Clear Body is a precision-engineered polycarbonate bodyshell specifically designed for the Losi Micro-T 1/28 stadium truck platform. Measuring 5.9 inches in length, 2.25 inches in width, and 1.9 inches in height, it provides authentic proportions whilst maintaining ideal weight and aerodynamic characteristics for the micro-scale platform. The crystal-clear polycarbonate material offers approximately 2mm thickness, providing an optimal balance between durability during bashing and painting, whilst remaining lightweight enough not to compromise the platform's performance characteristics. The polycarbonate formulation used by Pro-Line allows for excellent paint adhesion whether using acrylic or polycarbonate-based RC paints, and the paint-then-peel overspray protection system ensures you can achieve professional-quality finishes. The body is compatible with the Losi Micro-T 2WD RTR stadium truck models in both white and silver variants, utilising the standard micro-scale mounting points. The engineering ensures that the body mounts securely without rattle or movement during high-speed running or aggressive bashing. The integrated paint-then-peel film technology is a significant advantage over traditional masking methods, reducing preparation time and improving final paint quality. All mounting hardware integration is designed to maintain clearance for the Micro-T's mechanical components, steering linkages, and suspension, ensuring full functionality immediately after installation.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Will this body fit my Losi Micro-T RTR? — Yes, this body is specifically engineered for the Losi Micro-T 1/28 platform and fits perfectly. The body mounts securely to the standard Micro-T body posts and mounting points without modification. However, you should verify that your specific Micro-T model is compatible — this body works with the Losi Micro-T 2WD RTR Stadium Truck variants.
- Does this body come painted, or do I need to paint it myself? — This is a clear, unpainted body shell. You will need to paint it yourself using polycarbonate-compatible RC paint. The good news is that the body comes with paint-then-peel overspray film pre-applied, making the painting process much easier and delivering superior results compared to traditional masking methods. The included window masks and decal sheet help you complete a professional-looking finish.
- What type of paint should I use on this polycarbonate body? — Use only polycarbonate-compatible RC paints, typically available from Pro-Line and other RC retailers. Standard spray paint or automotive paint will not adhere properly and may damage the polycarbonate. Most hobby shops stock polycarbonate RC paint in spray cans or paint pen bottles, making it easy to find.
- Is this body suitable for beginners to RC cars UK? — Yes, the body is an excellent choice for beginners. Whilst painting requires care and attention, the included paint-then-peel overspray film makes the process much more forgiving than traditional masking. The body itself is durable polycarbonate that can withstand impacts and crashes, and mounting to the Micro-T is straightforward. If you're worried about painting, many UK RC retailers can paint bodies for you, or you could order a pre-painted version if available.
- What makes this Baja Bug body different from other available bodies for the Micro-T? — This is an officially licensed Volkswagen design based on Pro-Line's acclaimed 1/10 version, bringing genuine automotive heritage and iconic styling to the micro scale. Most Micro-T bodies are generic stadium truck shapes, so this distinctive VW Baja Bug design makes your Micro-T visually unique. The quality of detailing, from the flared fenders to the simulated rear engine cage, is significantly superior to generic alternatives.
- Does the body come with an optional spoiler? — The body is designed to accept an optional add-on spoiler/rear wing, but this is sold separately. The mounting provisions are built into the body, so you can add a spoiler later if desired.
- Can I use this body with other RC platforms, or only the Losi Micro-T? — This body is specifically designed and engineered for the Losi Micro-T 1/28 platform. It will not fit other RC car platforms without significant modification, which is not recommended as it would compromise fit, weight distribution, and aerodynamics.
- How durable is polycarbonate for bashing and racing? — Polycarbonate is excellent for both applications. It's lightweight, impact-resistant, and flexible enough to absorb minor crashes without cracking. It's the industry standard for RC bodies across all scales precisely because it balances durability with performance. The 2mm thickness on this body is appropriate for the Micro-T platform.
- What is included in the decal sheet? — The Pro-Line decal sheet features two complete hood and door graphic schemes, allowing you to create two different painted looks with the included graphics. Both are authentically designed to match Baja Bug styling.
- Do I need any special tools to mount this body? — No special tools are required. You'll need basic body clips (which your Micro-T likely already has) and optionally a body saw or sharp craft knife if you need to trim window openings. The mounting process is straightforward and takes just a few minutes once the body is painted and decals applied.
