Hey guys, brand new to this site, however i've heard a bunch of things about this place and heard it was really helpful! I'm soon to be purchasing a 1994 celica HB and one of the first things i want to find for the car is the body kit/styles that i have pictures of below. Also, is the spoiler on the first car stock and if not, what is it called?
I like this design the best. Nothing flashy, just pretty simple. However due note, i won't want the hood that is on this car. This car is pretty much the same design, just with some side skirts. Again, won't be using the hood on my car. P.s- I sorta like the low stance of the first one and the body. Kinda reminds me on the Supra. |

Both cars pictured are Celica GT4's with nothing aftermarket except for the wheels. The stock hood was not designed to work with that front bumper. It can be made to work, but the center of that bumper is raised 1" higher than the regular front bumper, so the stock hood pushes the bumper down.

So if i don't get a GT4 model, is there any type of kit that looks the same? |

There are aftermarket front bumpers and hoods that look similar to the GT-Four's, but fit on the standard Celica.

The GT4 front end is pretty easy to install on a standard Celica. You could get the front bumper and an aftermarket hood if you want, but all the aftermarket hoods will have vents of some sort. The vents in the GT4 hood are very functional and aid in keep engine bay temperatures down on the GT4.

And would i have to mold or shape it to the body (because i can't do that). BTW, REALLY appreciate all this help! I'm a total noob when it comes to these things lol |

As far as the side skirts go, the sides on that bottom one are TRD. The rear spoiler is a stock spoiler with GT-Four risers, the rear splitters are TRD and the front splitters are Euro.
That's how they look on a normal front bumper. -------------------- 1994 Toyota Celica GT-S 5S-FE 190k Miles. Project car 1992 Toyota Celica GT 5S-FE 170k Miles. Daily driver/beater 1999 Toyota Camry LE 5S-FE 216K Miles. RIP You will be missed. *ASE Certified General Manager |
