I think the TR7 had a Spyder edition, and I know there was a Chevy Monza
Spyder (altho I've only seen a few, and I can't remember if it's 'Spyder'
or 'Spider')
And I guess that with a bit of fiddling it's possible to cast
whatever-you-like out of pot metal or whatever and have it plated. But I
suspect these badges, if not original, are pinched off a different car.
So will you have a Spytfyre? Hmm...
