Hmmm... PITA for installers probably means I won't be able to afford it for a while But I plan to be sticking around for a few years at least Its funny you say that, because just after I got my 6GC, one of my best mates just started saving up to get a 1GC to play with Good to see you haven't forgotten about yours Cya, Josh P.S. Have you reverted to a stock front bumper with the front lip/skirts on the sides at the front? Or does the body kit just look deceiving on the side in those last pics? -------------------- SOLD :( 1997 ST204 Celica ZR -----> See it here on 6GC! 2013 October Celica of the Month XD Now: '00 NB8B Mazda MX5 -----> See it here in off topic! |

where do I get side skirts like that? Are they stock for the 96+ celicas? My 95 convertible just has the straight rough textured black ones.
edit: I was referring to the first post. I just saw that you put a body kit on in the last couple posts. What is that front bumper though? This post has been edited by match220: Apr 2, 2013 - 7:09 AM -------------------- -Jay

Those sideskirts from the original photos are standard on all post-facelift ZR Celicas in Australia, and were an optional extra on the other models. I believe they are exactly the same as the SSIII side skirts. -------------------- SOLD :( 1997 ST204 Celica ZR -----> See it here on 6GC! 2013 October Celica of the Month XD Now: '00 NB8B Mazda MX5 -----> See it here in off topic! |

I believe they are exactly the same as the SSIII side skirts. Yep Josh is correct. The first pics of the car is the OEM sideskirt. Was standard on the ZR (facelift) in Australia, GT in America also had them (need to confirm but pretty sure). It was on the SS-III in Japan (maybe other model too). Ebay US has a few of them last time i checked The current pics you see there is the Varis Arising II kit (front, back and side) -------------------- 98 ST204 ZR - Black Beauty - Roaming the streets of Sydney 73 TA22 LT - Tiffany Blue - Mint Classic Weekend Cruiser 75 TA22 LT - Snow White - Mint Classic Weekend Cruiser 77 RA28 LT - Flubber Green - Mint Classic Weekend Cruiser 94 MX-5 NA8 Clubman - Red Racer - Looking for corners WIP Project: 69 RT40 Corona, 2nd WIP Project: 66 RT40 1600s Corona 86 Corona RT142 - Daily Driver 6GC 4 Life Baby!!! |
