Mr2kyle Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 Hi folks, Just trying to find out how much wider the rear arches are compared to the front arches.....reason for this is that I'm thinking about getting the ridox front fenders but I don't know if this will make the car look a little out of proportion since I'm thinking about leaving the rear end the stock width. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evinX Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 Will 100% throw it off. The oem archs work spot on as they are. Going wider on thr front only will look odd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr2kyle Posted December 20, 2017 Author Share Posted December 20, 2017 Ok thanks for the quick reply! Reason for asking is I'm after reading an article on speedhunters and the one on there looks like it has the standard rears with a wider front... thanks though!

ShawnPreece Posted December 21, 2017 Share Posted December 21, 2017 Go for the wide rears too always best to keep it in proportion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hitbox Junkie Posted December 21, 2017 Share Posted December 21, 2017 If you are any good with Photoshop you could always try and use that to try and get an idea of what it will look like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edvard Posted December 21, 2017 Share Posted December 21, 2017 There is a for sale thread on driftworks. The guy has a supra with 20mm wider front arches. Maybe he could help you. There are also pictures on the thread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dnk Posted December 21, 2017 Share Posted December 21, 2017 Scott Holloway fitted a TRD front end on his car I'll try to find some photos of it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jam127 Posted December 21, 2017 Share Posted December 21, 2017 My old supra had standard rear, ridox 30mm front and it looked absolutely fine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr2kyle Posted December 22, 2017 Author Share Posted December 22, 2017 Thing that scares me about the wide rears is 1. cutting the arches 2. More places for rust to occur due to where it's riveted on and 3. The bodykit eventually looking dated much like the one I have on currently. Once again thanks for the replies! I have all the standard parts to put it back to stock but I keep on coming back to the ridox look Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
