LOL! Can't wait to see it completed.

I'm still waiting on mine and for the S7:F gunmetal 19" staggered wheels

Cool. Be sure to post a picture once you have it. Have they gave you a date yet?

sure will when I get it ..... ETA sometime around mid July to Mid August apparently they have a huge backlog on order - even on dealer pre-orders

Are you talking about the FiveAxis kit or the FR-S? I'm actually thinking about getting the kit first and then get the FR-S when its available. That's why I'm asking about the kit.

waiting for the five axis kit and wheels - got the car already

My car may be the reason some of you are waiting. I was told production was stopped when they saw the pictures of my car. I was visited by a Five AD guy to go over everything and they verified the kit production was OK and it was a installer (dealership) error why nothing is sticking to the car. Sorry guys... They did confirm production was OK on Friday so hopefully you will see these kits soon. I can't stress enough how critical the installer gets the alignment correct. If they don't there will be unnecessary stresses on the kit and it will pull away from the car. When you get your kit installed walk around it and look to see that everything is centered and that the kit follows the lines and seams on the car. Check the kit for any gaps where it wraps into the wheel wells, this will be a good cue.

This post will show you what happened to mine due to the bad install

Well since I'm one of the few I'll be posting the goods and bads of my install once it's done so if this happens to me as well they will contact me. WHITE CARS ARE NOT ALLOWED TO LOOK BAD

Ok. So, I'll be expecting a wait period since you're waiting... :popcorn:

Thanks for the info. Saw your kit pictures. I have to say that is no good. :eyebulge::thumbdown:

I hope your kit gets fixed properly!

Hi Everyone,

My name is Matt with FIVE:AD. Just wanted to stop by and say hello!

For starters, we're truly looking forward to seeing more photos in this thread for sure. As tnt mentioned, we have received a lot of orders in a short period of time for both the FIVE:AD FR-S aero kit/spoiler, as well as FIVE:AD wheels for the FR-S. We are working around the clock to produce and ship out the kits/spoilers as fast as we can. For wheels (and lowering springs), we are receiving shipments for product every week or so and turning them around as soon as they arrive.

Also want to touch on the fact that we have been working with digital_assassin on his kit/spoiler and confirmed that there were issues with the install. We are currently working with his installing dealership to resolve the issues. As he stated, and as we explained to him, it is very important that the installing dealership align the parts properly on the vehicle to ensure proper install. Since we cannot physically be at each dealerships for installs, we need to rely on dealer technicians to follow the instructions and cover every step. If the install is rushed or steps are missed, that is when problems occur. If anyone has any questions regarding their kit/spoiler, please do not hesitate to contact FIVE:AD directly at info@fivead.net. We are here to help.

For now, and to inspire those patiently waiting, here are some images of completed Five Axis Edition Scion FR-S':
