    Default Heres a cheap mod for added visibility.

    Heres a cheap mod for added visibility on your spyder. I just got done outlining some minor body panels (Will have a vinyl shop do the rest) Take a roll of this: http://solutions.3m.com/wps/portal/3...glGSS8PJ58BMbl and use it to outline your spyders fenders and frunk lid, and rear fender, and than main body panels. It's black until light hits it just right. I will get some pics soon.

    You can also use it to add more visiblity to your helmet as well.

    I had seen this done on an RT here recently and it looked real good. So glad you posted. I just ordered a roll through Amazon. It's all about being seen, but looking good while doing it, can't hurt.

    Just be aware that the package will say "ScotchCal" On it and than in small writing be labeled "Scotchlite" in the lower corner of the package on a white tab. There is an adhesive backing, and than a clear protective layer, you will need a razorblade to remove the top layer.

    Retroreflection is a fantastic process, and, yes, makes you very visible! Good job!

    I've done that on my Spyder, it really does show up well with external lighting.
