Tamiya 1825147 Volkswagen Beetle Spare Body for M06/M04L/M02L Chassis - Clear Polycarbonate  [1825147]

Give your RC Beetle a fresh look

The Tamiya 1825147 Volkswagen Beetle Spare Body fits the M06, M04L and M02L chassis and is ideal for hobbyists who want a classic silhouette with modern build flexibility. This is an unpainted polycarbonate shell that lets you personalise the style and finish of your model.

Built from clear polycarbonate for strength and light weight

The body is moulded from clear polycarbonate, offering a good balance of toughness and lightness. An overspray protective film covers the shell and should be peeled away before applying paint and decals to ensure a smooth finish. This kit includes only the body panel; window masks, stickers and trim parts like mirrors or wings are sold separately.

Simple tips for painting and trimming

Use compatible polycarbonate paints and tidy masking to avoid paint bleed. A sharp hobby knife or scissors are recommended for cutting out wheel arches and trimming tabs. Apply decals after paint curing for best adhesion and consider test-fitting the body on your chassis before final trimming.
