Tamiya 1825147 Volkswagen Beetle Spare Body for M06/M04L/M02L Chassis - Unpainted Shell  [1825147]

Refresh your model with a classic Beetle shell

The Tamiya 1825147 Volkswagen Beetle Spare Body is produced for use on the M06, M04L and M02L platforms and gives modellers a clean, traditional Beetle profile to customise. The body is supplied unpainted to let you choose your own colour scheme.

Clear polycarbonate construction and protective overspray film

Manufactured in clear polycarbonate, this body offers good impact resistance while remaining light. It ships with an overspray film that should be removed prior to painting to avoid imperfections. Note that only the body is provided; masks, decals and optional external parts such as wings or mirrors are not included.

Practical finishing and fitting advice

Plan your paint layers and allow full cure time before applying decals. Use window masks to keep glass areas clear and trim using a sharp blade for neat edges. Trial-fit the body onto your chassis to ensure clearance around wheels and suspension before finalising cuts.
