I was thinking about getting some based on what i saw on a members picture on the forums, but i dont know much about them and i cant seem to find much, or anything, about them on the internet. Are there different kinds of front splitters or are they all the same? and if you've got them on your car or have a pic of them go ahead and post it! thanks

whatthe, if you're going to list the TRD splitters as fitting all years, you have to say the same about the SSIII's...

^ actually the grooves on the end where it was made for the fitting of the 96+ bumpers fogs. It was made for 96+ so that is what i stated. But if it tickles your fancy to put it on a preface lift bumper like your picture you can.

Thanks guys, i'm pretty sure the eurou one was the one i saw and liked. I can't find anything on it on the internet though, at least from 5 or 6 different google searches and the parts database on the site here. Is there a place to get them that you know of?

Nice thanks man, I went on to his site and he has a lot of good stuff, including those splitters. Unfortunately they're fiberglass, and i live in the countryside so i'm worried about durability issues. Does anyone know of metal ones?

Trust me - I got OEM euro splitters not fiberglass from him in a Toyota Box with toyota paperwork and he special ordered them not made them. Problem with euro splitters when I had them on was they are thinner than OEM sides and appear to be missing from a rear angle. Only good view of euro splitters is the front or front angle.

Oh okay nice thats good news about him ordering OEM. So by having them on are there any bad angles. i mean, does it look worse than stock from any angle or does it look good from some, and then normal from the others?

They look good anywhere near the front. I wouldn't really expect to see front splitters from the back of the car wink.gif They can never look worse than without any....

Sorry to hi-jack this thread, though if anyone's interested I've got a set of the Euro splitters (unpainted) for sale. £45+p&p? (not sure what that comes to in $$)
pm me if you're interested.

[hijack mode off/]

and to contribute to the thread, my personal fave is the SSIII splitters, totally suits the lines of the facelift bumper and gives such a beatiful stance to the front of the car. smile.gif

Yea you can't see the front splitters from the rear angle. They are not leveled evenly with OEM side skirts from the side view. But they do look awesome from the front view and front angled view even with sides. Manphibian is right though, better to have it than not at all. His set up actually goes well with his whole euro styling. Good job, I noticed you had the splitters, sides, and blocks.

Its about that price - only thing is that make sure he gives the OEM version and not the fiberglass one.
