    Default First Purely Cosmetic Mod

    I found a nice chrome spider and couldn't help myself. After floorboards and a cat delete install, it seems kind of trivial, but it makes me smile. Has anyone else succumbed to this type of temptation?

    Wow, $1.20 is a great deal. I think I paid about $6 for mine on Amazon. It does seem to be well made and all metal. I was afraid it would end up being cheap plastic chrome, but the metal can be bent and formed to the contours of the bodywork. Seems reasonably durable.

    The first one I posted is actually the $ 1.00 one.......and I don't usually shop Amazon, because unless you belong to Amazon PRIME not all shipping is free !!!!!.........On E-Bay you can request to look at ONLY the items that are shipped FREE.............just sayin.....Mike

    Very true. We have Amazon Prime mostly for the online video streaming. I use eBay too, but have had more bad experiences there than on Amazon. It's really just a matter of whatever works best for you. [emoji6]

    It is immoral to put non-BRP things on your beautiful God-created roadster. As a matter of fact, I was reading the good book the other day. I read in Seplich 143:12-24 the following: Whenever upon the land that the lord of road creates trikes in the reverse, it is sinful to covet changes which modify the beauty of natural presentation. It therefore must be deemed an offense punishable through the oft-feared application of many miles of twisties.
