• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

NEW RS BumpSkid tm NOW AVAILABLE ONLINE

In the FAQ Section on the SpyderPops Website is states :-

Do I need to remove the factory skid plate?

You don’t have to, however it increases the thickness on the back edge where it overlaps the frame. Two of the mounting holes for the factory skid plate where it connects to the nose plastic will be abandoned. The nose will now be fully supported by the new BumpSkid.

I have had mine fitted a couple of months, did not remove the Factory Skid Plate - No problems and belive it just gives extra protection with
increased thickness

Thanks for the info. I called Harvey at SpyderPops and he basically told me the same thing. No harm in leaving it on. I get extra protection, but I will lose a bit of ground clearance. If I start dragging the nose of my RT, I'll take the stock skid off. For now, I'm leaving it the way it is because everything is working and I like the look of the new BumpSkid.
 
Thursday, May 24th is my 2nd anniversary with my Spyder...I'm going to have a BumpSkid installed at the 'Gatherin' of the Spyders' this weekend...together we have almost 37,000 miles in 2 years...:2excited:

Yazz...that old skid plate is a disaster...the new one looks G-R-E-A-T!!!!!
