Wow, the kit looks great. Love the taillights too, did you just spray them?

BTW, is the mesh in fog light area red too?

Im very worried about that as well, especially for daily driving. I think the drop on this car maybe 1- 1 1/2inches or so, so Im thinking maybe 1/2-3/4 inch on my future FR-S would be perfect with this kit. If I don't get the kit, I'll go 1 inch or so.

Troy from five axis I believe had a inch drop on it and said he might got one more inch. He said he has no problems with bumps and drive ways.

Every time this kit is posted I try so hard to like it, and I just cant. Makes the car look so bloated.

Im sure he doesn't have any problems, but I know that this kit is lower than the lip on my Z for sure, and I have problems getting over speedbumps in my Z or dealerships/complexes with steep driveways. And I am on stock ride height w/ 19s even. I really love this Five axis kit too, soo I may A) not even get it if I can't hardly drive with it, or B) get the kit and just buy a 2nd front end piece to swap out when the 1st one gets too damaged to the point where it bothers me. lol. I think Im leaning towards option B), this kit is waaaay too sexy! Pics don't do it justice. from the back at a quick glance, I almost istook the car for a Lexus LF-A. Stupid I know, but the car sits soo nice and low with this kit and looks aggressive! the rear spoiler is my fav too.

a little bright for my taste but looks good. I'd be interested in the taillight overlay but a lighter shade (more transparent)

I might actually like them a bit lighter to let more of the taillight shine/show through but I kind of like the dark outline

Kit looks better than stock.

Not sure about the paint job. It looks off, but plastic looks like that allot. Need to see it in person.

You could get the kit, sell someone just the front bumper, and put the rest on a BRZ. I think in time we will see lots of interesting combinations like this.
