I'm thinking buy the front lip, and use OEM site skirts, which look to be basically the same, and the OEM rear lip.

I do like the 5axis kit as a whole though, really nice, simple, clean, but very sharp.

The front looks kinda boring, but the sides are nice and clean and the rear would've been clean if they had done the diffuser type fin things on the bottom, but as it is it just looks plain. For 1150 dollars you might as well just leave it stock, cause no ones going to know the differance.

On the Contrary, I've actually gotten alot of looks and compliments on the kit. Its simple enough so that it doesn't attract too much attention, but at the same time it makes its presents compared to a stock tC. The body lines of the kit are designed to flow perfectly with the car, and this kit was designed to make the car look as if it came that way OEM. if you're looking for a kit that is made for grabbing alot of attention and completely changing the design of your car, then I'd recommend going for a full body kit, This is a lip kit, its made to give the car sublte changes, not change the design of the car as a whole. I'm not bashing on you, so please don't get defensive, I'm just stating my 2 cents.

IMO looks clean but far too conservative. I thought the oem lip kit was pretty low key. This is even moreso. If I were to see it on the street, unless I was particularly looking for it, I think I wouldnt notice the lip kit on the tc.

I like the oem front better but I like the sides and rear lip of this kit better than oem.

this kit lowers the bodylines of the car so if I had to choose between the 5 axis and the oem

Id pick this one because you can only go so low on 18's before you start rubbing. This kit would give it a lower stance without fear of rubbing

oem doesnt extend the lower edge down at all. boo to that.

i dont suppose the rear lip would clear an angled exhaust (a lil more than the hi power)..... but, im sure u can always just cut it... i guess.

thanks for the compliments guys.

tCtCtC: The kit was designed around the TRD exhaust and the Greddy Evo2, if you have a slanted exhaust, you best bet is to cut it.

Sorry for the delay on the website, came across one last difficulty, it will be up tomorrow

Quoted from Mr. FIVEaxis himself, Mr Troy Sumitomo!

nicee! you'll be really happy with it! As far as paint goes, your best bet is to find a shop by your house, Seeing that your from Northridge, I'd PM JayJay with the widebody tC, I'm sure he knows plenty of great shops, if your willing to drive down to my neck of the woods, I'd recommend Midnight Garage in Walnut or MOBworks in Orange

It can be done at home, it fits the tC body lines like a glove, You could do it yourself if you would like, but its always nice to have an extra set of hands to help straighten out the lines.

Is there any drilling that has to be done or is it all 3m tape?
