Fitting SSIII splitters - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #36792 14 posts Started by tcox22
Okay, well I've done a little research, but i've probably overlooked this, and i'm definitely not the most mechanical suavy kinda guy so how exactly would i go about getting the SSIII splitters on the front, some OEM side skirts, and a rear lip fitted. Do they just bolt on without and use of bondo or anything. Whatever I can do myself, besides the actual painted will help, because i'm a broke high school kid. And for you guys that have the splitters and such, do i just order them through a toyota dealer or what? any help is appreciated, even if you guys just give me a link to a how to or something smile.gif

as far as ordering the ss-iii splitters pm a member here named "ChisC" he'll be able to order basically any part you want for much cheaper price than what you would normally purchase them for at a toyota dealer (if they even stock these items) i purchased mine from ChrisC and i'll give him thumbs up for the products.

spraying these body extensions is a definite professional job unless youve got the equipment and the knowledge on how to prime/spray the parts. ask your local panel beater or body shop and they may be able to install it for you for another $50 or so. They'll bolt in to the existing bolts of your celi of course but you do need adhesive to make some of the body parts flush with your body. chrisc sells replicas so they arent always an exact 110% fit, but excellenet regardless.

good luck with the project and always ask the members here they are always very helpful...

p.s. chrisc had a thread before on prices and shipping costs of some of the items inc. ss-iii spliiters front and rear, trd wing, oem facelift etc... maybe another member can point you out to the right direction or you can always use the search function. -R

actually mounting the SSIII fronts is relatively easy. They bolt directly under the front using the stock bolt locations.

the only issue is usually fitment. The fitment of my SSIII fronts basicly sucks.

So SSIII splitters should bolt on the front, and i'll probably need to use some adhesives and whatnot? so could i get a flush look without having to use a bondo or something, cause i don't feel like having my bumper resprayed. also, does the same apply to ANY rear lip? thanks!

no adhesives for the SSIII front, hese are OEM replica parts. They bolt on "perfectly". No bondo, nada.

niiiice, i've got a guy who can paint some parts for me, instead of painting the entire thing... which will costa an arm and a leg. so i plan on getting the SSIII fronts, some OEM sides and i dunno what kind of rear lip and possibly a TRD replica wing. i'm kinda clueless on what i want for the wing and rear lip so any feedback is welcome.

im starting to think the underbody protection "the black paneling" can actually pull the splitters in to better postioning using the screws. thats what i did yesterday and it worked a little bit better,so today im gonna jack my car up and redo the wholething.

FOR 21 YEARS I DEALT WITH THE RAIN,ONLY TO FIND OUT THAT I COULD STOP THE PAIN,SO NOWITZON!!!

Not now - im still working on New molds from original parts - witch later will have the OEM fittment. The later SSIII spliters what i had where replica-replica-replicas - so they had issues too i think..
