[Supras] Supra undercover

[Bob]

The real question is going to be the final price...

It sucks that a cheap piece of plastic can still pull $125 fro the dealer.

Find a used one.  Really.

However, before you bid on eBay, phone your local dealer and ask the price.
Just be sure you're 
sitting down first.  :)

Some things are actually reasonably priced at the dealer.  I keep hoping to
pick up a cheap fog 
light on eBay, (Available at the dealer for $141) only to watch them go for
$200+ in the end 
bidding war.  Next time that happens, I'll give up and just go pay the
dealer.

Heck, if it KEEPS happening, I'll go pick up a dozen extras at the dealer,
and eBay them.

I have an engine undercover that isn't currently installed, and I'm not sure
if I'm going to.  
I've been thinking about making fibreglass replacements for it.  If I do
that, then I'll just use 
mine as a mould for the first one, and I won't need it after that.

If it's worth enough to other people, I'll make more of them.
