it would probably take a fair bit of work, i imagine the arches on the supra are a fair bit bigger than the 2, but it should be possible - just lots of work

My personal opinion is that the veilside kit is ugly as sin, so i would be more concerned with finding a new kit instead of worrying about arches, so, in my opinion, no, its not worth the effort or work, but if your set on the look then first step would be measuring up the arches on both cars - or better still, find somewhere that has some for sale and would be willing for you to offer them up to your arches, then at least you will have an idea of the work that may be needed

photoshop it first, but I'm not so convinced. There's a US MR2 with wide arches at the back that looks sweet, but its not veilside. Its got a subtle kit on it that goes well with the rest of the car.

MADPSI do some MR2 wide arch kits, all custom made to order so they might be able to make you VS style arches? :thumleft:
