This page is just a warning to a common problem seen at some service
centers when putting a spyder up on a hoist.
Please see the pictures and find a shop with a padded lift capability. Be sure to
show your mechanic where to hoist the car if he is not familiar with the Spyder or
the quarter panel will be crushed. The area just in front of the rear tires is unsupported
and is only a plastic cover.
