Will removing these "Sharky" sides make my car look better for the time being?

Looks like you're missing the side rear quarter panel molding (#75658-24010 number for 92-96 left side) the 97+ sideskirt doesn't have this piece. If you're planning to get the 97+ sideskirts anyway i probably wouldn't bother with it though.
Here's a quick picture to show what I'm talking about.

^^^^ Thats what help looks like guys LOL!
AWESOME! Thank you so much!
There is something else missing under the door and perhaps the actual side itself. I took half down and put it right back up because it looked unfinished. I will drop it again and take pictures tomorrow.
Thanks again.

id leave everything as is till you get your 97 kit ready
hey heres a little friendly advice that can save u a nice chunk of change, its dont even bother doing your timing belt, the engine is non interference and they hardly ever break anyways , and if by chance it ever does, well worry about it then, you could probably get many more years out of your current one and put that money towards yoour 97 sides,,they only 250$ anyways.

Thank You,
I considered that but that would be "function following form" chronologically. I could not justify spending anything on the looks without knowing I could "drive this Bit** to Cali and back without worry. That belt did not look new and I need to do a major tuneup anyway. I thought the timing belt job would be over a grand but I found a local Toyota dealer that agreed to do the timing belt/waterpump/seals job with plugs, caps, rotors, coils, plugs, wires, engine coolant temperature sensor, fuel pump for 600-700$. This is for labor only as I have all the parts.

Even if I go up to the 97+ I will likely take those off of you. I have got to go through my storage space first because I was so psyched when I got the car, I may have just thrown those in without remembering it. I will let you know this week.
Awesome offer. You are a good dude!
