Hope you don't mind I share with my personal (totally immaterial smile.gif) opinion:

You have TRD side skirts and TRD rear splitters on. According to this would look much more "consistent" to have TRD splitters for front or TOMS lip. SS-III splitters just do not fit "concept" much (however looking good on car. I have them as well smile.gif). See some pictures:

TOM'S lip really can look good on GT-four bumper smile.gif and TRD sides were used for TOM'S edition Celica as well so it simply match (IMO)



Just mixing TRD and SS-III kit looks not that good as should... (see my car last summer: TRD front and rears + SS-III sides = not that perfect as should be)



thats all...

They are not TRD sides in the first pic, they are facelift sides(SS-III).
These sides were used for TOM'S edition Celica as well so it simply match tongue.gif

I have not said there are TRD skits in the picture. I said TOM'S edition Celica had TRD sides with TOM'S lip (In the picture is GT-four not TOM'S edition celica). And here is prove it's true. Behold TOM'S edition Celica:

That was what I originally had in mind for my car, but like malpaso, I also didn't think the SSIII splitters would flow with the TRD sides and rear splitters. SSIII rear splitters would work better. smile.gif

Lol thanks. That first pic with the TOM's lip was my car at an early stage, It never sit right anyways, it looks alot better on azian_advanced's car for some reason.

Anyways since then I've ditched the TOM's lip and rear spoiler and lowered it on BC coilovers.
