Trying to pre-plan custom decals - anyone have these measurements for a 2024 RT Ltd?

[marentette2525]

I will be upgrading to a 2024 RT Limited this Friday and am trying to pre-plan out my own custom decals (I did this to my 2018). Does anyone have the measurements (height and length) of the front hood; side and top of saddlebag; and top part of back storage?

You might check with "Wrap My Spyder" or buy a "Tape Measure"!

Noted... and as I stated, I don't have it yet. Wrap my Spyder didn't have the measurements either. I'm hoping someone who has a 2024 RT will be able to provide the information.

I have a 2024 Spyder RT Sea2Sky, which I believe is physically the same. I'll be glad to take measurements, although I don't think it's going to be as simple as you think. I'm going to attach a picture of mine, which is a 2024 Vegas White Satin Sea2Sky.

You can see that the saddle bags are oddly shaped, as is the top case.
And I've attached a picture of the frunk hood, which is shaped like a shield, and is not flat.

Let me know which parts you want measured and I'll do the best I can.

Thank you so much, what you are showing is perfect. Just the height and length. These are photos from my current (and soon to be traded in Spyder). Trying to do the same thing with newer images on my new one.

Okay, I've got pictures of the various panels and am about to go take measurements to go with each of the pictures.
Since the panels are all odd shapes, the sizes are going to need descriptions.

I was going to attach the pictures in a .ZIP file, but it says the ZIP file is too large. Let me try something different.

Okay, I've inserted all of the pictures as thumbnails. Clicking on each picture will open a larger view.
If you hover your mouse over the picture it will give you the name of the picture. That's important, as that's what I'll be using to identify the dimensions.

That's quite an impressively wrapped Spyder. Considering the expense of having wraps created for your new roadster, as well as from an artistic perception, of which I am ignorant in both respects, have you considered contacting Sue Hopper, (319) 750-0814, [email protected], to see what she might suggest for your new artistic venture? I do not know Sue personally but have seen her work and it is striking. I am helping a relative of a late friend who is faced with the task of selling the friend's significantly personalized RT.

If you are referring to my 2018, that was not a wrap job, those were individual decals that I had to create and/or modify, cut, word, and apply myself (the wording on both sides alone was over a months work). I will be doing it to my new Spyder, with some upgraded or newer images. Still narrowing down the vinyl until I see my new RT in person (it's supposed to be a matte black finish). I am leaning towards a brushed silver and gold finish to stand out.

Thank you so so so so much!!! Good luck with yours. I dropped off my 2018 last week for the major recall repair and they are supposed to put it on their website or on the floor for sale once it's done and the paperwork processed as a trade in. I was told they would probably sell it as is, with all decal work on it (I certainly wasn't going to offer to take it off! ).

My pleasure, and we'll want to see pictures of your new ride, once she's all decked out, of course.

I'm sure there may be some potential buyers who will frown and walk away from it, and also some who will be drawn to it.
And I'm sure they'll bump the price for all of the "custom art work" on it.

Please understand that I am not in any way, shape, or form attempting to talk you out of your plan, but I have read of automobile owners who procured new vehicles with matte finishes, and when something went wrong, the "aw, ****" factor came out in spades. Matte finishes are creatures of their own particular character, totally unlike gloss finishes.

Looks like you got your blue spyder emblem the same place I got my silver spider.

Yes, thanks to you! It was your thread and post that led me in that direction. I owe a debt of gratitude to you. Thank you!

And, BTW, I see you have a Ridgeline. I owned two Ridgies when they had the old style bed design, loved both of them, totaled both of them

My pleasure, and you don't owe me anything, other than to help someone else in the future.

Before I bought my Ridgeline I was driving a 2014 Honda CR-V. I was thinking about buying a teardrop camper trailer and realized the CR-V wouldn't be a good choice as a tow vehicle, so after looking at Toyota Tacomas and Tundras I had a chance to look at Ridgeline when I had my CR-V in for service.
The Honda and Toyota dealers are down the street from each other, so after driving the Tacoma I asked if I could drive the Ridgeline on the same route. It was a couple of miles, and included a section of road that was badly in need of repaving. The salesman said no problem, and the first thing I noticed was that the ride was a lot smoother in the Ridgeline than in had been in the Tacoma.
Got back to the dealer, they offered me a great trade in value, since they had all the service records since I'd had all the CR-V service done there. I had custom plates on the CR-V and they dealt with transferring them to the Ridgeline, and the salesman went out with a screwdriver and mounted them for me (with a dealer license plate frame).

And while I still looked at camping trailers I attended a 3-wheel basic rider course through the Motorcycle Safety Foundation, and quickly switched to buying a Spyder. And then bought a Stinger CAN-AM Trailer to tow the Spyder behind my Ridgeline.

Loaded up, but with the loading ramps still down.




The Stinger trailer folds up and stows nicely in a corner of my garage.
