How low do the fabulous and five axis lips sit? If they dont sit that low, you may want to get some subtle sides so everything flows together.

The issue Im seeing is that if you decide on the fabulous lip, its not as aggressive as the ings rear is so it may look odd.

Fabulous is subtle and not as low as 5 Axis. The 5 Axis is discontinued though. I'd say the 5 Axis and all the ings+1 would look ok but not the Fabulous and the ings+1 rear because it's so bulky. I'd say Vertex sides.

When I had the Fab front, it was a tad lower than the gfx front. If that helps.

If you were to go with a Fab front, I would go with either vertex sides or gfx sides. Only problem is that I'm not sure if it will flow well with the more aggressive looking ings+1 rear.

Can you go 5 axis front and ings side and rear?

i have the Fabulous front lip, and it's about an inch lower than GFX.

i dont think any lip would flow with INGS except for INGS itself because of its bulkiness
