Don't like the front, too much openning in the lower front fascia, and don't like the overly accented lower sideskirts (too many lines, doesn't flow well for me)......

...but LOVE the rear end. Wayyy better than the standard rear, with the larger exhaust tips and integrated spoiler. Very nice back there. And love that minimal wheel gap too.

Rims? OK, but that's an easy fix.

Overall, meh.... Nice try, but too much for my tastes. A toned down front fascia, and better sideskirts could make this work for me. Otherwise, I'll wait for some other aftermarket kits.

But kudos to Lexus for even considering this, that's ballsy for sure. Go Lexus!

yea the trunk spoiler is pretty big. I think those massive exhuasts also accentuate the whole rear. Good job Five Axis.

And to all those that think this is too much, its a concept car, its supposed to be too much. Like their other concepts, they wont be selling this

Damn, the exhaust is almost as big as the tail lights and not feeling the rims either. Not bad overall but I'd stick with the F-Sport verison.

Here is a LIVE Image from our friends over at "The Lexus Enthusiast" site..

There is an upload digital lighting glitch on the drivers side... BUT still looks pretty darn spot on to the CAD renderings...

Notice how the middle bumper area is NOT Matte either... They went with FULL Glossy this time....
