The tingling means it’s working!
Armor spikes are not seperate weapons. Their cost is added to the cost of armor--they are part of the armor itself.
However, the PHB says that they can be *enchanted* as if they were seperate weapons and magical armor enchantments do not add to armor spike damage.
So... if you buy Masterwork Spiked Armor, do your armor spike attacks get +1 to-hit?
I'd say yes, because you cannot buy Armor Spikes seperately. For instance, you can't buy "Masterwork Armor Spikes" and somehow put them onto a suit of regular armor. But magical armor spikes exist, and any magical item is also a masterwork item. The only way to get masterwork armor spikes is to buy a suit of masterwork spiked armor. Therefore..
Okay, I think I just answered my own question.
