HemiStorm Addict Baja 5B bodyshell

HemiStorm Addict Baja 5B bodyshell

HemiStorm have the new Addict bodyshell for the HPI Baja 5B large scale buggy available. Made from high-quality 1.5mm polycarbonate the 5-piece body is of a somewhat different shape compared to the kit body in order to give the 5B a fresh new look. First up are longer sidepods that keep away dust and debris from the crucial parts such as the clutch and pullstart. Additional width ensures sufficient cooling while underneath the skid plate there is a stepped line allowing for extra ground clearance in rough terrain. The body panels also give enough room for Outerwear’s prefilter while the raised front makes it easier to run upgraded linkage setups or additional electronics. Also included with the body comes a paintable lightweight roof that replaces the stock aluminium roof piece.
