Uhm... No, not really. Nothing special. Brake pads has been changed by the dealer and I am too lazy to polish wheels
Next time I go to the dealer I'll ask him again about the pads. Could be only that.

Hi Ale_72, Congratulations for your Spyder. I'd like to know if you are using wheel spacers in your car? I have a 2011 Spyder using front 245R19 and rear 285R19 tyres.....Great looking stickers, where did you buy it.........

I love the red interior compared to the black
The stickers have been done and applied by a wrapping company in Italy (https://instagram.com/dswwrapping?igshid=rvj77ljsrv10) based on my idea. I need to check if I still have somewhere the rough measures I gave them.
It took to them almost 4h to fit them (in two people without losing time. I can confirm it since I was there all the time when they did it). And the tricky part was the rear spoiler because of the curves in the corner.

Let me know if you find another or can source the fabric to make a new pouch!

@Kpadas I found this in an old note. Should be pretty accurate. Unfortiunately I do not have the size of the numbers:
Central green stripe width: 26cm
White side part: 1.5cm
Smaller green stripes: 1.5cm
I think the number is roughly tall 40cm (but I do not have this measure anymore)
Number width: 26cm

Ah and no spacers at all fitted. Not a big fan of those.

In a couple of WE I should go to him to pick up a suit. I can ask him if he is willing to make another one (this guy is pretty "peculiar" as @Turbo Jonny may remember )
Not sure if it's worth to have it done from Europe considering shipping, VAT and duties at the custom, if you ask me.
If I recall right, he wanted around 250 (300??) eur for that (I need to check wiht him).

And even this year the usual question: Oh wait, shall I hibernate the car for the winter?
But then winter tires were calling me.



Ready (well, almost) again for another smiley winter.

I am super jealous of the PCCB but, even more, of the red interiors Replace that ugly orange side marker

PS mmmh... in english is "jealous of" or "jealous for"?

already ordered before the car is even here haha. It does match the PCCB though.

did you change your tail lights? If so do you know what you went with? The ones on this car don’t look great to me.

“jealous of”

No, I did not change anything. All stock except for the stripes and the leather rework (but done according to the exclusive options)
I think it depends a lot from the light.
