Technical Performance

The Killerbody Chromed Plastic Door Handle set represents a thoughtful approach to scale detailing for 1/10 RC cars. Rather than adding weight through metal construction, Killerbody has engineered these handles from chromed plastic that delivers the visual impact of chrome detailing whilst maintaining the lightweight characteristics essential to RC car performance. The chroming process applied to the plastic substrate creates a mirror-like finish that authentically replicates genuine chrome trim found on full-size vehicles, making these handles ideal for builders focused on scale accuracy. The universal design means these handles accommodate the majority of 1/10 scale body shells available in the UK RC market, including popular hard bodies, lexan shells, and custom builds. The four different pairs provide options for matched door sets or mixed styling, depending on your creative vision. Whether you're building a display piece, preparing a competition-ready 1/10 scale RC buggy, short-course truck, or monster truck, these handles withstand the rigours of both track and field use whilst maintaining their chromed appearance. The compact, detailed design ensures they don't interfere with other scale accessories or mechanical components of your 1/10 RC car setup.
