Technical Performance

The Traxxas Bandit VXL ProGraphix body represents a significant investment in personalisation and aesthetics for your 1/10 scale buggy platform. Manufactured from durable polycarbonate, this body shell delivers exceptional impact resistance whilst maintaining the visual quality expected from a Traxxas product. The part-painted finish demonstrates Traxxas's engineering excellence, with professionally applied graphics that showcase the detailed artwork whilst leaving the primary body colour as transparent polycarbonate ready for your chosen Traxxas ProGraphix paint selection. The body arrives fully trimmed with pre-drilled body post holes at precise locations, ensuring perfect alignment when installing onto your Bandit VXL chassis. The pre-applied protective overspray film demonstrates thoughtful design, as it prevents accidental paint overspray in areas where it's not wanted, significantly reducing the chance of paint reaching internal components or windows. The included rear wing features proper mounting hardware and contributes to aerodynamic stability, particularly important when running high-performance brushless RC buggies at speed. The complete decal sheet provides factory-quality detail finishing options, allowing you to apply professional-looking sponsors or design elements that complement your custom paint scheme.

Frequently Asked Questions

• Can I use standard RC paint or do I need Traxxas ProGraphix paint specifically? — Traxxas ProGraphix paint is specifically formulated for the ProGraphix body system and delivers the best results, as it's engineered to work with the polycarbonate material and pre-painted graphics. Whilst you might use other quality polycarbonate paints, Traxxas ProGraphix is the recommended choice for optimal adhesion, durability and colour consistency with the printed graphics.
• Is this body suitable for beginners new to RC painting? — Yes, absolutely. The ProGraphix system is specifically designed for accessibility and ease of use. The graphics are already fully painted, which eliminates the most difficult part of custom painting. The protective overspray film means you can't accidentally paint areas you shouldn't. Even first-time painters can achieve professional results with a simple spray can of Traxxas ProGraphix paint.
• What colour options are available in the ProGraphix paint range? — The source material doesn't specify exact colour options available in the Traxxas ProGraphix paint range, so we recommend visiting the Traxxas website or contacting RC Model Shop directly to view the current colour selections and choose the perfect shade for your custom build.
• How does this body compare to pre-painted Traxxas bodies? — The ProGraphix body offers superior customisation compared to pre-painted alternatives. Whilst pre-painted bodies come with a fixed colour scheme, the ProGraphix system lets you choose your own colour whilst retaining the factory-quality printed graphics. This means you get both personalisation and professional graphics, whereas a pre-painted body locks you into one design.
• Will this body fit my Bandit VXL buggy? — Yes, this body is specifically designed for the Traxxas Bandit VXL platform and includes pre-drilled body post holes that align perfectly with your chassis, ensuring a professional fit with proper alignment and no modification needed.
• How long does the painting process take? — This depends on your chosen painting method and drying times. A simple spray can application typically takes 30 minutes to an hour, with drying time between coats. Full drying before driving usually requires 24 hours to ensure the paint has fully cured and hardened.
