Thanks for the pics! This is definitely a spider as we can see the black cladding drooping between the buttresses. But there are some details I haven't noticed before, like the small ridges right at the back of the rear deck lid. Those continue forward but do not seem to line up with the trailing edges of the buttresses. Instead they seem to continue under the black cover to what might be a raised engine cover / window loosely obscured by the fabric.
Or maybe it's more camo padding under there to throw us off the scent?Last edited by Klinn; 07-02-2019, 11:30 AM.

Would also be a good place for a cold air intake for the engine.Last edited by Frenzy36; 07-03-2019, 01:29 AM.Rocket City Florida- 2001 ZO6 - 2013 427 Vert - 2020 Stingray
