I've got the splitters and thinking about getting the sideskirts. I can't seem to find a pic on here of a Celica with this set up. What do you think? Thanks.

invader skirts don't match / flow with TRD extensions

the TRD spliiters (front and rear) flow well with the "invader" sides. ofcourse they flow even better with the TRD sides wink.gif

Thanks. I had the same thought too. But, I do not think much flows well wit the front end of the invader skirts unless it is the invader bumper itself, or any other bumper that has a flat, flaring piece on the side...ie itchy bx car with vis c-one replica bumper. In other words, only certain aftermarket bumpers flow well with the front end of these skirts. Maybe I can pioneer this set up, cause I can't find a pic so far...I would be a one up on importchick. smile.gif

Noope! No invaders... just get some factory skirts or maybe some trd replica sides.

x2 plus invader is too common (and ugly in my opinion!)

the best (other than the TRD) skirts with those splitters would be the 404 skirts. Look at Tufy's profile for pics.

Importchick95's car was mentioned here, and here are the links below. My car will eventually look hers (same wing, sides, and rear splitters), except of course I will have the OEM front splitters instead of her bumper, which granted, will prolly not flow so well with the front part of the invader sideskirts. But looking at these pics, I really thinking the rear splitters flow well with the rear end of the invaders.

Pic 1

Pic 2

But the majority may still not be swayed, but just thought I would ask since this is a very different approach. I will take the risk since I am getting the skirts from CelicaGT96 ^^

i agree, i think it will look good. just so long as everything fits all nice n snug and nothing looks to be half falling off. not a fan of loose fitting trim pieces.

test fit the front splitters with the sides. you may want to get a 96+ bumper and put on ss-III splitters. that would look nice for sure.
