Default Gen 2 Lip Kit from NIA bodykits!

What's up everyone! I am currently working with NIA bodykits to help design and come out with a lip kit for the 2nd Gen xB's. Right now we are in the works for the front lip and side skirts. This is a long shot but the front lip is looking to be around the $180.00 price range but of course, it can be less than that.


We're trying to design something that looks great , is stylish and most important than all, it has to be driver friendly! Lol!


I want to hear from you all. Opinion, ideas and suggestions are wanted from you all. Please chime in!

Hopefully soon, we will have something to post up......very soon!

azztinthebox - simple design is exactly what we're trying to get here. Thanks for your input!

DREW - I think we're going to end up doing something that is dual exhaust friendly. Since the OEM bumper doesn't have and single exhaust cut outs, chances are the lip kit will be the same

yeah, I have been searching for a lip kit, just for the front, I love the rear bumper and the sides, I just think the front could use a simple lip on it, can't wait to see what comes out!!

Def have a point about the rear. Super clean style for a stock bumper. I love the front but a nice simple lip would def add to the look of the car for sure.

1 idea that would be clean and simple is a replica of the 5 axis front lip but have the bottom go straight across. Cuz the axis kit has that indent in the middle. I think if it didnt have that indent and continues straight across that would look super clean.

I think making a lip kit that looks like it came with the car dealership looks the best. The Extreme Dimension, and the AIT kit that comes with the fogs look fugly.

Imagine the front of my bomex kit and have the piece filled in instead of it being cut out

I would love to see something accent the stock lines of the car like the five axis does. Maybe a mix between the five axis xb kit and the NIA kit. A split type front but with a kinda edgy lip design I think would look killer. A plain and simple kit would be nice but judging from NIA's other kits I'd love to see what aggresive design they can crank out. I dont think any of the kits besides the fiveaxis even payed attetion to lines of the car whie desiging it. Please try to not make it too low, 90+% of us DD our rides. Also IMO the lower kits like the ATI make the car look too bus like. Visually a shorter kit will make the width to height ratio more appeaing.

I like this idea as well. I also like something that will make the xB appear lower for us that have 20" rims. I also like the two holes for exhaust give the xB more agressive look in the back as well. I like clean but also agressive kits for the xB.

Yeah but we need a choice between a dual exhaust cut out or single. Some of us aren't running a dual exhaust so it would look goofy for us to only have 1 in a dual cut out
