five axis body kit anyone?? - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Anyone thinking about getting a five axis body kit and add it to their FR-s? I thought about it but kind of like the way my car looks and I don't want to mess with it.

That front lip is begging to be broken on the first curb you hit. I'm staying stock.

I am, I like that the cost is low and it will be pre painted to match my car.

But I also agree with Russ in that I like how the car has fangs in stock form.

I'm agreeing on the front. The TRD kit is starting to grow on me though. I didn't really care for it until I saw it on Firestorm in these pictures. Now I can't get it out of my head.

I really would want to see the 5Axis one on a Firestorm. I did like it on Jack Hollis' car.

Thanks. Viewed together, the differences are subtle, but I'm thinking I like the TRD better, particularly the extension of the lower fog area. Not suer I like the "mouthguard" though. I also like the black around the sides of the TRD. Choices, choices.....

Calidrifter · 06-08-2012, 09:23 PM

Yup, it's the mouthguard that is just so off putting for me.

I like the sides but the rear is kind of meh for me as I would only really get it if I got the trd exhaust.

It's nice but I don't like the front lip too much. It seems to stick out a bit too much from that angle. I would rather get the TRD instead.

I agree. The only thing I can't decide about the TRD is whether or not I like the "mouth guard" black trim. Also, it looks like it has an integrated front plate which I don't want/need.

when is the TRD body kit due to come out?

Winter 2012, I believe

Goodness, that's an amazing capture of Firestorm red! I like! I do like the Five Axis rear decklid spoiler though.. subtle and adds a nice curve. I wouldn't mind getting away from the 'bat-wing' design that I was used to on the Si.

Also, thanks for reminding me I need to get the Toyota badges and wheel caps soon!
