Damn I just did this a couple of weeks ago with my mr2. It really isn't that hard to do. However, if it is ur first time, as it was mine, it will be very nerve racking. It also depends on what type of vinyl you get.

I did the mr2 in white and it turned out really good in my opinion.

I'll try to document my install of all the following parts and post them up as DIY's.

Cusco Rear Lower Stiffener: Cusco 965492RE
Cusco Power Brace Rear Side Member : Cusco 965492RS
Cusco Rear Lateral Arms w/ Adjustable Pillow-ball : Cusco 692474L
