The wing should've stayed in the junk pile. I like the Green, that's a color that should've been offered as stock. The front bumper is not to bad. It's got some style and still looks relatively like it could be Toyota factory, not horribly garish like some of the designs Veilside kits and others. The round fog/driving lights really don't even look out of place on a box being they're inset into sqaured openings. Really, it's nice enough to possibly copy. 
Wonder how that would look under a Lowbox hood

I don't know what the exact material of the Suby cover is made from, something similar I imagine - some version of polypropylene is the most common/cheapest.
(sorry for taking that a little off-thread LIP, thread's about your roof... not your buddy's ride. --- BTW, Thanks again for the x-brace, doing great still.)

Man you should have just had the whole top cut off make it a convertable 
but really though it looks nice and probably feels good driving in warm wheather. As for the other xb thats hot too but that wing dose have to go.
