I'm about to purchase a set of JDM fenders for my car, since I no longer want to spend ~$800 to repair my US fender.

My first question is, there's no difference in the styling to these due to being on a GT-Four, correct?

Secondly, they'll bolt up the same way? I can't really tell from the pictures.

Also, am I going to have to change the wiring for the sidemarker? It's supposed to blink with your turn signals, correct?

USDM sidemarkers will not blink with the turns, Rusty. We're not that cool.

The wiring will have to be extended, but as long as you know how to splice wires, it's no big deal. All the Celicas use the same bolt patterns for the fenders/bumpers, so you're all set on that front. No difference in styling between the USDM/GT4 fenders, with the exception of the sidemarkers.

Unless you're crafty and you pull the bulbs out wink.gif Looks 1,000x better in my opinion. No inspections where I live so I can get away with it.
