Fastrax Foam Body Protectors Pack of 10 RC Bodyshell Protection FAST104

Overview

Protect your RC car bodyshell with the Fastrax Foam Body Protectors (10) FAST104, essential accessories for anyone serious about maintaining their RC hobby investment. Whether you run a Traxxas Stampede, Team Associated buggy, or any other popular RC car model in the UK market, these foam protectors are designed to prevent paint damage and body rattle caused by bodyclips and mounting posts. This pack of 10 foam protectors offers excellent value for money, making them a must-have addition to your RC tool kit and spares collection.

These protective foam pads work by sliding over your RC car's body posts, creating a soft barrier between the metal clips and your carefully painted bodyshell. Unlike sticky adhesive alternatives, the Fastrax design features a snug fit that holds securely in place without damaging your paint when you need to remove or adjust them. They are affordable and practical, serving as a quick and effective solution to one of the most common cosmetic issues faced by RC enthusiasts in the UK — paint rubbing and unsightly damage around body post areas.

Available in good stock and ready to ship throughout the UK, the Fastrax Foam Body Protectors represent smart thinking from a manufacturer that understands what RC drivers really need. For a ready-to-run RC car or a carefully customised competition machine, these protectors are an inexpensive insurance policy that will keep your bodyshell looking factory-fresh for years to come.

Key Features

• Pack of 10 foam protectors — Each pack contains 10 individual foam protectors, giving you multiple sets to equip your RC car and keep spares in your pit bag for future maintenance or replacement if damaged during use.
• Slide-on design — Unlike sticky foam pads that use adhesive backing, these protectors slide over your body posts with a snug fit, meaning they hold securely without damaging paint when you need to remove or reposition them for bodyshell work.
• Prevents paint damage from body clips — The foam absorbs pressure from metal bodyclips and prevents them from rubbing directly against your painted bodyshell, protecting your RC car's cosmetic finish and maintaining resale value.
• Eliminates body rattle — By creating a soft cushion between the bodyshell and mounting posts, these protectors eliminate annoying rattling noises that occur during driving, providing a quieter and more satisfying RC experience.
• Universal compatibility — Designed to work with standard RC body post sizes, these foam protectors fit most popular RC car models on the market, whether you drive a Traxxas vehicle or any other leading brand available in the UK.
• Affordable protective solution — Costing just £1.99 per pack, these protectors offer exceptional value compared to alternative protection methods or replacement bodyshells, making them one of the most cost-effective upgrades you can make to your RC setup.
• Easy to replace — Should any of the foam protectors become damaged during use, replacement is straightforward and inexpensive, allowing you to maintain continuous protection without significant investment.

Technical Performance

The Fastrax Foam Body Protectors FAST104 are engineered from quality foam material designed to withstand the pressures of RC car bodyshell mounting systems. The foam is resilient enough to provide consistent cushioning over extended periods of use, preventing the metal bodyclips and posts from creating stress marks, dents, or paint rub-through on your bodyshell. The non-adhesive design means the material maintains its structural integrity without degrading over time, unlike sticky foam pads that can lose their grip or leave residue on your bodyshell. Each protector is sized to fit standard RC body post diameters, ensuring a snug slide-on fit that prevents movement while driving but allows easy removal when you need to access the bodyshell for maintenance, painting, or modification. The foam density is optimised to absorb vibration and impact without compressing excessively, meaning they continue to provide effective protection throughout their lifespan. This makes them an excellent choice for both recreational bashers who want to preserve their investment and serious RC competitors who need reliable, consistent protection during high-impact driving sessions.

Frequently Asked Questions

• What do foam body protectors do for my RC car? — Foam body protectors slide over your RC car's body posts and create a soft cushion between the metal bodyclips and your painted bodyshell. This prevents the clips from rubbing through your paint and causing unsightly damage, whilst also eliminating annoying body rattle during driving. They are an essential maintenance item that helps preserve your RC car's appearance and value.
• Will these damage my bodyshell paint when I remove them? — No, the Fastrax design uses a slide-on fit rather than sticky adhesive backing, meaning you can remove and reposition them without risk of paint damage. This makes them much safer to use than traditional adhesive foam pads, particularly if you need to remove your bodyshell frequently for cleaning, painting, or maintenance work.
• Are these compatible with my RC car? — These foam body protectors are designed with universal compatibility for standard RC body post sizes, making them suitable for use with most popular RC car models available in the UK market, including vehicles from Traxxas, Team Associated, Team Losi, ARRMA, and other leading manufacturers. If you're unsure whether they will fit your specific model, contact our expert team for confirmation.
• How long do foam body protectors last? — The lifespan depends on how heavily you use your RC car and how much pressure the bodyclips exert on the protectors. Some users report they remain effective for extended periods, whilst others find they may become damaged with intensive use. The good news is that at just £1.99 per pack of 10, replacement is very affordable when you need to refresh your protectors.
• Why are Fastrax protectors better than adhesive foam pads? — Fastrax protectors use a slide-on design that doesn't rely on sticky backing, meaning they won't leave residue on your bodyshell and can be removed without risk of paint damage. They also offer a snug, secure fit that prevents movement during driving, whereas adhesive pads can sometimes lose their grip over time or leave your bodyshell tacky to the touch.
• Can I use these on a competition RC car? — Absolutely. Foam body protectors are used by RC competitors and weekend bashers alike. They are particularly valuable if you run a painted or specially customised bodyshell that you want to protect from damage during high-intensity driving or racing events.
