question about splitter/skirt matching, What goes with what? Options

[enderswift]

Hey 6GC,

its been a while since I've posted anything, but I guess that's true about most people on this here. Maybe things will pick up in the spring and we'll revive some awesome threads... Anyway I have a question about what splitters go with what skirts and what trim of the celica do they correspond to. Here is what I know/think I know:

I understand that the original 1994 gt4 had no skirts or splitters on it from factory as those didn't show up until later.

I know that ss II and ss III's have their own matching skirt/splitter/rear valence combo (that alot of people seem to just mix and match for some reason)

From what I can tell, there is also a trd set or splitters and skirts (which is super mega positron rare)

Finally, and of most interest to me, I understand that later model GT4's came with factory splitters and side skirts

Can someone please elaborate on the above? specifically the splitters and skirts that would appear on say a 1999 gt4?

I have a 99gt, are the skirts I have the same ones that would come with a gt4? if yes, which front and rear splitters should I be looking at in order to get a matching set?

If you cant tell, I'm trying to avoid buying usdm gt side-skirts with ssIII front splitters and gt4 rear valence skirt. oh and by the way, lets keep this in terms of factory parts. so no c-one or body kits as that would get really confusing

So, I think this is the perfect opportunity for someone who is bored to create a nice pictorial breakdown of all the dress up bits that various 6g's came with. I would step up to the plate but ME is a damn time consuming (but awesome) major.

Rear splitters were an option on the GT4, as far as I can tell. It doesn't seem like the were standard. I see a lot of GT4's without them. From what I've seen, SS-III's have the regular OEM skirts that all the USDM Celica's ('96+) had, paired with their own front and rear splitters, seemingly as standard options. Those are just my observations, not based in fact.
