    Default Farkleosis? Yup!

    I'm trying to avoid both outcomes. Bad for my health. Perhaps a slow burn after this initial tranche, but, uh, mmm, er, um, I do have a FOBO TPMS to put on, and some wrapmyspyder items to attach, but I'll need to get the garage warmer for the vinyl to stick properly.

    OK, OK, I admit it, I have a full blown case of this disease. It is a fun disease though!

    Ditto. And I wonder whether you did your own striping or did you found someone else to do it for you? I received some wrap from WrapMySpyder but it seems a little cold yet in my garage. I've heard there are people in town who specialize in installing stuff like this and if so, I wonder whether I should risk doing it myself.

    Default Self installed stripes

    My daughter is home from college for the winter break. She and i did the whole shootin match in about 90 minutes. We just followed the install video on the website. We made sure to tape stuff in place with blue painters tape first to make sure we liked the placement, then did the peel and stick. It was actually pretty simple. Every time we finished a piece, we said “wow, this looks awesome”. When it was done, we really couldn’t believe we did it ourselves.

    she, of course, has the design eye, so i let her do some of the placements. We also used a ruler to make sure everything was aligned, because we are both anal that way, being software developer geeks.

    it was mid 60s today in Vegas, so we figured we were ok with the temperature.

    hope helps. It may not be easy for everyone, but we had fun doing it.

    oh, frunk insert... definitely a possibility. I dont want to overpower with too much color though. I like the lines. It makes a sleek look. Need to think about which color to consider.

    thanks for the compliments all!

    RE: "oh, frunk insert... definitely a possibility. I dont want to overpower with too much color though. I like the lines. It makes a sleek look. Need to think about which color to consider."

    Agree, the color of the frunk insert shouldn't be bold, but rather subtle. I'd probably go with black (non-gloss).

    I have often thought about about adding the break stripes and frunk insert to my Spyder, but am undecided about a color scheme. It would be nice if the website had the capability to let you play with different color options so we could "see" the end product.

    Spiceman, Question about your Exhaust mods, so you keep the stock final Exhaust, but change the baffles in it, or are the baffles for the Pitbull Primary Muffler Replacement Pipe?
    I'm wondering how your combination with the Lamonster Big City Thunder QQ Monster Baffle sounds compared to the Stock Primary Muffler and the Akrapovic?

    Default Cat bypass, yup.

    I did replace the stock cat with the bypass, and put in the big city. Compared to stock, the sound is deeper, throatier (if thats a word). Definitely not overpowering though. Through the helmet, you dont hear too much of a difference, but in the clear, its louder. I like the combo.

    not familiar with how other exhaust systems sound.
