IMO with ur setup OEM is best. TRD with SSIII fronts make it look uneven i think.

TRD sides are to aggressive, and does not look ''one'' with the body imo. facelift sideskirt with TRD spats are the way to go...see my sig tongue.gif

I agree with the TRD splitters not going so well with the OEM sides.
IMO the OEM sides sit too high compared the TRD splitters but, if you have ssIII's in there as well it may not be so bad.
I'd stick with OEM as well.

a tom's lip with oem sideskirts with ss-III rear splitters looks and flows perfect. The same with a full ss-III kit.

I'd say at gt4 front with c-one lip (also st202/st205 c-one bumper), trd sideskirts and trd rear splitters looks great and flows smoothly.

with these kits its very highly that you get 17 inch rims especially with trd sideskirts

i have the toms lip, oem sides, and oem rear, only thing is that toms lip is higher than the sides but it doesnt bug me all the time. ss3 kit is ok too. for TRD full kit, i just don't like the front spats. if you had a gt4 front you could get the c-one or euro lip.
