Overview
The Traxxas Body, Slash Modified, ProGraphix (TRX10411X) is a premium replacement bodyshell designed specifically for the Traxxas Slash Modified 1/10 scale RC short course truck. This innovative body shell offers an exceptional level of customisation, allowing you to create a truly unique RC car that reflects your personal style and preferences. Whether you're a serious RC enthusiast looking to upgrade your Slash Modified, a weekend basher seeking fresh aesthetics, or someone exploring the vibrant world of RC car UK hobby, this ProGraphix body delivers professional-quality results with minimal effort.
What sets the Slash Modified ProGraphix body apart from standard replacement shells is its hybrid design philosophy. The body arrives with fully painted, detailed graphics that are already applied to the shell, giving you a professional foundation to build upon. However, the main body colour is transparent, allowing you complete freedom to choose your own colour scheme. This means you're not locked into a predetermined colour option—instead, you can select from an extensive range of Traxxas ProGraphix paint colours to create the exact look you envision for your RC car. This flexibility makes the Slash Modified ProGraphix body perfect for racers who want to match their team colours, bashers who want something eye-catching, or collectors who appreciate the personalisation options available in the UK RC hobby market.
The body comes completely trimmed and ready to paint, with all the preparation work already completed by Traxxas. Simply grab a can of Traxxas ProGraphix paint, spray your chosen colour, and you'll achieve instant, professional results that look like they were done in a professional paint shop. Even beginners can achieve excellent results with ProGraphix paint, as the formula is specifically designed for RC applications and provides excellent coverage and durability.
Key Features
- Fully Painted Detailed Graphics — The graphics and design elements come pre-painted on the body, meaning you don't need to hand-paint intricate details or apply complex decal designs that require significant skill or patience. This saves you valuable time whilst maintaining a professional appearance, and allows you to focus on selecting and applying your chosen main body colour.
- Clear Main Body Shell — The body is manufactured from transparent polycarbonate in all areas except the graphics, allowing you complete creative freedom when selecting your main colour. This innovative design means you can choose colours that complement your team, match your RC car's theme, or simply express your personal style without any restrictions.
- Included Decal Sheets — The body package includes top and side number decal sheets, giving you everything needed to add finishing touches and personalisation options to your Slash Modified. These high-quality decals are pre-cut and ready to apply, helping you create a race-ready or show-quality appearance.
- Pre-Applied Overspray Film — The body comes with protective overspray film already applied, which shields the detailed graphics whilst you spray the main body colour. This eliminates masking work and protects your graphics from paint overspray, ensuring your finished result looks clean and professional with minimal preparation required.
- Trimmed and Ready to Paint — Unlike some body shells that require extensive trimming and preparation, this body arrives completely trimmed with all necessary cuts already made for lights, body posts, and mounting points. This means you can move straight from unboxing to painting without additional tools or time-consuming preparation work.
- Easy Professional Results — Traxxas ProGraphix paint is specifically formulated for RC applications, offering excellent adhesion to polycarbonate bodies, vibrant colour coverage, and durability that withstands bashing, racing, and outdoor use. The paint system is designed so that anyone—regardless of painting experience—can achieve results that look professionally applied.
- Compatibility with Slash Modified Range — This body is designed specifically for the Traxxas Slash Modified 1/10 electric 2WD dirt oval racer, ensuring perfect fitment with all components, mounting points, and the existing chassis of these popular vehicles.
Technical Performance
The Slash Modified ProGraphix body represents Traxxas's commitment to quality RC car components that meet the needs of serious enthusiasts and casual bashers alike. Constructed from durable polycarbonate material, the body is engineered to withstand the rigours of RC racing and bashing whilst maintaining its shape and appearance through countless use cycles. The polycarbonate construction provides excellent impact resistance, protecting your vehicle's internals during crashes and collisions whilst remaining lightweight enough to preserve the excellent handling characteristics of your Slash Modified chassis. The body's design incorporates proper ventilation areas to ensure that motor heat is dissipated effectively, maintaining optimal operating temperatures during extended runs. The detailed graphics are applied using Traxxas's professional printing techniques, ensuring vibrant colours that remain visible even after extended outdoor use. The transparent sections of the body allow light to pass through correctly, ensuring that any LED lighting or visual effects integrated into your Slash Modified remain fully visible. The body's geometry is carefully engineered to maintain the Slash Modified's aerodynamic properties, ensuring that the vehicle's speed, stability, and handling characteristics remain consistent with the original design specifications. When combined with Traxxas ProGraphix paint—which is formulated specifically for polycarbonate bodies—this shell creates a durable, impact-resistant, and visually stunning exterior that will make your 1/10 scale RC short course truck stand out from the crowd whether you're racing competitively or enjoying weekend bashing sessions.
