Audi A4 DTM 2005 lexan body for 1/10 on-road cars

This unpainted 1/10-scale body reproduces the Audi A4 DTM 2005 profile and detailing for compatible on-road touring car chassis. The clear shell is intended for trimming, mounting and final painting so you can achieve the desired scale look and functional fit.

Trimming follows common lexan procedures: mark and drill or cut mounting post locations, trim wheel arches for tyre clearance, and open areas for steering and suspension travel where required. The shell preserves the 2005 A4 mirror and rear wing shapes; note that paints and mounting hardware are not supplied.

As part of setup the body contributes to scale aesthetics and aerodynamic behaviour, altering airflow and arch clearance. Confirm compatibility with your chassis from the list below before committing to paint and final installation.

Apply polycarbonate-specific paints and masking after checking fit and trimming points. Trial-fit on your chassis first to ensure correct handling and clearances before finishing.

Accurate marking of body post positions is important; measure against your chassis and transfer points to the shell to avoid misalignment and excessive trimming.
The shell is standard unpainted polycarbonate; durability depends on paint thickness and mounting method. Proper trimming and secure mounting help reduce damage during normal club use.
Cut openings where steering and suspension travel require extra clearance. Check movement range with the body temporarily fitted to determine necessary cuts.
Short wheelbase TA04 variants differ in wheelbase and arch placement; the body is sized for standard TA04 dimensions so confirm your chassis wheelbase before trimming.
Use polycarbonate paints applied in light, even coats. Allow each coat to dry fully and inspect for runs; a thin final coat keeps details sharp while protecting the lexan.
