I got a good look at this Five Axis lip again last week on Dean's car and it looks AWESOME in person...

Here is a pic I found of his car slammed on Coilovers..

Great pic, Joe! I may be biased, but I think this is one of the best-looking lips out there. You can really see the detail in White.

Hey Phil, Glad you made it last weekend. Your car looks even more sick in person Loved your drop! I may post some newer pics if I have some time. As for price, that's for Troy to decide (that is, if he decides to do a limited production run).

LOL! Hey montgb, we may lose our exclusivity soon In fact, there will definitely be another IS with the lip shortly. FYI, Troy is seriously considering a limited production run on the lip.

No sweat, the more the merrier! So far we've got Black and White - I think the lip needs to be showcased on a Red car.

I LOVE it! There are only 2 lips that I love so far and yours is one.

It's very clean and doesn't scream out too much. If the price is a tad bit lower, then I can get wife to approve my budget.

I want to keep this car looking a bit aggressive while keeping the luxury appearance.

the lip needs to be bulky like the ings+1, vertex and Wald. it flows right with the stock side skirts but it needs to be aggressive in its own way or its not going to sell.. for that price and non aggressive people rather purchase other kits i mention. GL

One of the reasons that I like this lip is because it's NOT bulky. It flows perfectly with my Vertex side skirts.
