scottieb's 2021 Spyder-a-month: February - Red is for valentines... and Spyders!

[scottieb]

This is my Spyder Shutter body with custom cuts. It has a chrome Mako frame, star drop from an M3 clone, stock gas through and reg, and an OTP barrel on it. My plans are to source a red gas through or HPR and add a different drop and ASA, a red velocity adjust wheel, then a new bolt and some internal polishing.

I'm digging that star drop, not gonna lie. Looks right at home on that Mako frame.

[scottieb]

Yes. It fits the bill perfectly. It's hard to find drops that work with the Spyder ASA hole spacing.

Drop from the M3 dragun "stars and stripes" edition. I thought those were so cool when they came out.

Those mako frames are just mean looking.

I’m having the same issue finding an Asa and drop that work on mine too. I will have mine entirely red once I’m finished, but some of the small bits might take a while. The 32* red gas thru and NDZ feedneck red matches up pretty nicely to the spyder red. Kapp and Shocktech red, not so much.

I hear you. Red is a hard color to match. I have a red frame I'd like to put on a marker but I've found nothing that matches. It drives me nuts because it's off just a little bit.

Scottie, as always I love what you've done. Thanks for sharing!
