It's the fiberglass version and is just the gelcoat (need to get it painted) but I just had to put it on. The more I look at it the more I like the ricer black hood. :D

Overall I'm very happy with the fitment - it does have the stock latches and I installed the center latch too. It moved around a little bit at highway speeds - but was more stable than I thought it would be.

Looks VERY nice and clean!! I've always loved your car. :)
Thanks - yours is very nice too. But it's hard to beat a black Supra. :)

I was really impressed with how functional the DP vent is - heat simply pours out of it. Even with my turbo and DP HPC extreme coated - the heat is staggering.

I'll be putting some heat reflective material under the hood just for some extra protection.

love your car, but for the same reason as the pics show i'm afraid to put a lip or any type of body kit because it may not fit like you pics show.
the lip is flexible - and I'm glad it is - because as low as my car is it scrapes everywhere.

I wouldn't trade it for anything - but stock bodied Supras are OK too. ;)

Everytime I leave my driveway or anyone elses for that matter, i hear the scraping... it doesnt hurt it since its on the bottom but if it were not flexible I can picture it tearing or cracking....can't have that happening. Same reason why I sold my full bomex kit and gave up on that idea.... :lol:

I don't regret going with the RMM lip one bit..

Jim Swantko- Where did you get your hood from? And did it come with stock latches or did you put them in?
