I have the SSIII front and rear extensions but the other kind though. Check out my profile.

I think you should go with the OEM rear ext. with the SSIII Skirts.
Hiro rr ext. wouldn't seem to match as well as the OEMs do.
As for the front extns. you could go either way.

i'd say take off the nips, then idunno for the back, but the front i'd say a lip or new bumper...the extensions on the 94-95 just dont seem that aggressive.

I don't like the front very much. It's TOO subtle for my mildly subtle tastes.

I was gonna say the same thing. not sure about the tom's part though, only that they are dealer-option in Japan

also re: your question. the hiro rears are made for the oem sideskirts, they will not match up. so I guess that pretty much decides it

ummm no. both will work, they fit the coupe, so of course they will work. however what I said is that the hiro rears are made to be the same height as the stock (oem) sideskirts. the dealer-option or what you are calling the ss3 are lower than the stock sides. maybe you don't care that it may be a few cm off but I know I would notice so I'm just letting you know

Notice the difference between where the sideskirts are and the rear extensions from the ground, thats what he's talking about. I dont know how much of a difference it is w/ ur sideskirts. I still think it looks good, gives the car a complete look.
