Serpent SER213017 1/8 GT Painted Body Shell - Orange  [SER213017]

Painted 1/8 GT-style body in orange

This painted 1/8 scale GT-style body shell comes in a bright orange finish and is built for on-road RC use. It is supplied as a finished painted shell rather than an unpainted kit, so it can be mounted to 1/8 on-road GT chassis without requiring additional painting.

Fit and compatibility: the shell is shaped for 1/8 on-road GT arrangements and aligns with common GT mounting patterns used across full-size 1/8 on-road kits. Verify your chassis' body post positions before final fitment and trim only where necessary to clear suspension or drivetrain parts.

Installation notes: mount using standard body posts and clips, matching the pre-cut holes to the chassis. For fine trimming, use a sharp hobby knife and a sanding block to keep edges neat. Take care with painted surfaces during trimming and handling to avoid chipping the finish.

Tuning role: as a painted GT shell it affects aerodynamic balance and airflow around the chassis; use it to assess front and rear downforce and cooling for electronics and motor. Minor trim adjustments and mounting height changes will alter handling for lap-focused setups.

For 1/8 on-road racers who want a ready-to-run painted GT shell, this orange Serpent option provides immediate use with minimal prep while allowing setup changes for aerodynamic tuning.
