More info
I used this celica as a daily driver for contract work and it's driven roughly 700 miles a week. This prohibits me from any major modifications that would lessen its reliability or make maintaining it harder than it needs to be (ie engine swap, coilovers, etc).

I've never liked the SS-III splitters too much, but that weather strippping really pulls it together well!! I love the red/bronze color scheme, too. Sick Celi.

Agreed. The splitters by themselves didn't look great IMO either. The bottom stripping really did pull it together nicely. Thanks man.

Nice celica!!! What is that extra pieace of strip under the front lip? Thanks!

Thanks man. It's a strip of garage door weather stripping from home depot. Can't find the part number. $9 for the strip and some double sided tape. I really liked it too it really pulls the front together with the splitters.

Hey how do the Tein springs with KYB's hold up?

Excellent. They are very firm but also fairly forgiving. The kyb's you can get at any parts store but I'd recommend going to an authorized dealer for the Tein's... too many knock offs on ebay.
