Default Am I the only one?...

Am I the only one who really doesn't like the 5 axis body kit all that much. Yea, it's the only one out there right now, and if you've got it on your xB it does look kinda cool. But if there were more choices I definetly wouldn't pick the 5 axis kit for my ride.

The dual exhaust back just looks silly without a dual exhaust. The front is just kind of two pieces that hang down with a big hole in the middle. The sides are ok I guess. Not much style to it.

i agree with you. its simple. i have it on my xb, not too crazy about it. but it looks a whole lot better with it. i actually chose the xb08 because it already had the five axis kit on it.

I don't care much for it either. Especially the dual exhaust cut-outs in the rear.

I just like the fog light placement. The $hitty thing is they don't offer the fog lights at this time. They say they are in the works of making them for sale. I would get those if I could.

that makes sense

you agree, not crazy about, then say it looks a whole lot better with it and you bought your XB because it had the kit??? Huh???

I have it on mine and it looks much better with it, gives it a lower stance but to each his own.

The 5 Axis kit is alright, nothing special, maybe a little more stylish than your basic Aero kit. It gives the car a lower stance, yes, but so does lowering it, and I think it looks cleaner lowered without the kit.

My issue with the kit is the price. I would expect a little more material for $1500, I agree that it looks a little better than stock, and with the right exhaust t does look pretty sick in the back. I just think it is over priced due to a lack of selection. But hey thats capitalism. Supply and demand.

Me personally, I am waiting for something else for now.

I personally paid $1350 painted and installed from the dealer, I think it gives the car a much better look
