Exclamation Wald or Five Axis?

So I finally narrowed it down to my two favorite front lips.

Wald and Five Axis. Which one do you guys think I should go with? Also if anyone has a link to where I can get the lip already painted that would be AWESOME! Thanks so much guys.

If you're getting just the front lip, 5Axis.

The Wald looks best as a full kit.

As far as painting the 5Axis goes, you can call up Carson Toyota (l-tunedparts.com) and ask if they do painting, too. Otherwise, find a local shop - shouldn't cost you any more than $125.

Haha, I know I'm biased, but I'll chime in.

This Five Axis lip is virtually INDESTRUCTIBLE. Mine has been hit by rocks, scratched, scraped, clipped, pulled, and once I actually DROVE OVER it. So, not only does it look good, it's pretty damn durable to boot.

The only place to get the lip is l-tunedparts.com (or buy a used one).

Question, does 5Axis front lip require oem front lip to mount it, or can it be mounted by itself? Heard it required oem front lip in order to properly mount.
