VIS - OEM Style Carbon Fiber Hatch for A90 Supra

Carbon Fiber Hatch OEM Style for Toyota Supra 2020-2024

Carbon fiber parts have gained significant traction in the automotive world, especially for performance-oriented vehicles like the Toyota Supra 2020-2024. The Carbon Fiber Hatch OEM Style for Toyota Supra 2020-2024 is designed to deliver both aesthetics and performance by replacing the standard trunk lid with a lighter and stronger alternative. This carbon fiber hatch integrates cutting-edge manufacturing processes to ensure top-notch quality, durability, and an enhanced overall driving experience.

1. What is Carbon Fiber?

Carbon fiber is a composite material known for its high strength-to-weight ratio, which makes it an ideal option for automotive parts like hoods, trunks, and body panels. It offers the following benefits:

• Lightweight: Reduces overall vehicle weight, improving performance.
• High Strength: Stronger than steel in many applications.
• Aesthetic Appeal: Gives vehicles a sleek, high-performance look.

2. The Benefits of Carbon Fiber Hatch for Toyota Supra

Switching from a standard hatch to a carbon fiber version brings multiple advantages:

• Weight Reduction: The reduction in weight improves acceleration, braking, and handling.
• Aerodynamics: The smooth finish and design can help in reducing drag.
• Enhanced Appearance: The glossy carbon fiber surface gives a sporty, premium look.

3. Material and Construction

The Carbon Fiber Hatch OEM Style for Toyota Supra 2020-2024 is crafted from Grade-A carbon fiber, known for its outstanding quality. The hatch follows a two-part construction:

• Top Layer: The exterior is made from carbon fiber material, bonded with high-grade epoxy resin and coated with Poly Shield—a UV-protective polyurethane coating. This finish provides a high-gloss look while protecting against UV damage.
• Underside Shell: The underside is a one-piece, smooth shell fused to the top layer, enhancing the overall structural integrity. This ensures both strength and a refined finish.

4. Vacuum Infusion Process (V.I.P.)

The manufacturing process underwent a significant improvement in 2014 with the introduction of the Vacuum Infusion Process (V.I.P.). This technique utilizes a single-mold vacuum to shape the carbon fiber parts. The process leads to:

• Weight Reduction: V.I.P. produces parts that are 10-20% lighter than traditional methods.
• Increased Durability: Despite the lighter weight, V.I.P.-made parts are even more durable.
• Improved Consistency: This method ensures that every part is of uniform quality, enhancing fitment and longevity.
