Yes, that one by Harold Tierie with that nice glossy black look! Superb photo! :)

Joris, for the sake of clean and uniform design that we all try to keep here, please could you ask Harold if we can use that photo in a smaller resolution for the front page, but without his signature? Of course, we'll mention the photographer's name in the forum!

So maybe someone can do it with photoshop?

Haha thanks i guess? ;)

Today i mounted new gaiters for the gear and handbrake!

Offcourse like the Sportiva seats : red stitches and black leather.

Also bought second hand Zender pedals, they need to be restored first....

So if anyone see's the allu footrest (plate) from Zender let me know!

This week the spider go's to the garage and the rims wil be changed for the Teledials. Then its ready for the long sleep :(

More pics this week.

P.S. Charlee are you going to put the picture from Paso on the frontpage?

Nice upgrades! :) I guess you have cold winters there if you are going to put Spider to sleep? We are lucky here on Mediterranean, snow is more of a exception than something usual.

I guess Charlee is again in his super-busy mode, I'd really love to see that photo on our front page! It's brilliant!

Yes its a 12v one of the latetst i think? :)

The winters in Holland are okay i guess, we have some snow,ice i've youre lucky you can skate on the ice.

The salt on the roads are horrible, i drove my previous spider every day and thats not ideal.

Some pics with the 17'' Teledials, handeling of the car is improved massive...

I've got less then 0,5 cm till they reach 330mm Brembo's its very close.

Front of the wheels are fine, The spokes runs free without a wheel adapters.

Overall it looks nice. :)
