I have a 1997 Toyota Celica GT with TRD side skirts. The front and rear bumpers are the stock ones. I have NEVER put on lips or bumpers or anything of that kind before. So I just want to know if these will be a direct fit or will it need some modifications to fit my car. I also want to know if these are genuine or looks more like replicas?

direct fit, its genuine, but you have to realize from the front its only the corners meaning it dont wrap the whole front but, from the sides it looks okay.

Yea. I know it'll just wrap around the corners only. I just wanted to know how the fitment is. Is it fairly simple to install? Is there already holes for the bolts and nuts to go through already?

uses the existing holes/brackets that already hold the bumper in place on the bottom side and then you use double-sided tape to hold the sides up against the bumper.

That looks OK it seems to be OEM since it appears to be plastic and because is used then I guess it will fit just fine.
This will fit for either 94-95 bumper and also for 96-99 without any problem but it says st205 there but it looks like there are
made for st202 because there is not appear to have cuts for the vents under the indicators like the gt4.

fits any of the 94-99 bumpers including GT4 except that GT4 you have to trim around the hole. but it is possible if you have a gt4 to buy a used set already cut, seen it a lot. but rears do not fit coupe.

I have a GT Liftback model with the stock GT front and rear bumber. Will the rear splitteers fit my liftback model?

Damn. Just lost some cash. Now I don't think I can order these. Might just get myself some wheel spacers with the couple hundred I have left to spend.
