So its only the front lip thats in production rite now. What about making the whole kit with sides and rears. If I was getting lip kit I would want a full lip kit. Let me know when they're going to make the full lip kit and i'll consider buying it.

Troy will not be producing the same lip for the 09s. However, he did a project lip kit for the 09s. It looks a little different, but has similar lines. There are some pics of that car somewhere. Maybe, if there is enough interest, he'll consider a limited production of them?

If you guys want it, I think you should buy it.

Support 5axis, they are doing good things for Lexus -- damit!

Thanks P

I'm sure Troy will appreciate your comments.

How you've been? Sounds like you've been in So Ca a lot lately. Troy has no intentions to produce a full lip kit. Sorry dude. See you around.

I'm surprised people aren't jumping to get their hands on this lip, given its limited production run. There was decent interest when fishnfool first posted pics.

I hope this is the first of many 5Axis products for the IS.

Thanks B

Your car is looking sweeeeeeet! I'm not sure if you would agree, IMO the lip looks so much better in person.

Bump for Troy and all the FIVEaxis guys, great company that offers top notch products. This kit looks much more aggressive than the OEM lip kit and flows nicely with the side skirts, if i had an IS, I'd rock it hands down

Not many 09' options that will have that oem fitment quality..

As a matter of fact, if he decides to make the entire 09' kit, the side skirts and rear would most likely easily fit the 06-08 model...
Just leaving the two different front lip designs.

Here is a few pics for you all..

*Please keep in mind the 2009 IS350 F-Sport seen below is just a concept build at the moment.
