Technical Performance
The Carisma GT24R Clear Body Set CA15648 is a precision-engineered replacement bodyshell manufactured to exacting standards. Constructed from polycarbonate, this material has been selected for its superior strength-to-weight ratio and resistance to impact damage, critical factors in micro scale racing where collisions with track barriers and other cars are commonplace. The unpainted finish ensures that you're receiving a genuine blank slate—no factory paint that might chip or peel, and no limitations on the colour schemes you can create. The included decal sheet adds professional finishing touches and allows customisation without the need for extensive hand-painting skills, though enthusiasts can absolutely hand-paint or airbrush this shell for truly bespoke results. At 1/24 scale, this bodyshell maintains perfect proportions when fitted to compatible Carisma models, ensuring both realistic appearance and proper aerodynamic performance during high-speed runs.
