Hopefully the lip kit from the red VIP/JoeZ vert will become available soon :crosses fingers:
I pass on the Lexon, doesnt appeal to me. the front lip on the Autosalon ISC is nice but I wouldnt want to pay for the sideskirts and the rear. I want the Toms rear. think if it was possible id, piece a kit together.

As of right now, Five Axis has no plans to produce the grill either...

I wish they would make it and one for the F while they are at it.!!

Yes, Lexus owns the cars, but the kit was made/designed by fiveaxis, not lexus. (unless fiveaxis was contracted out by lexus to design a kit for them ... which might make it theirs )
Five Axis designed some components for these prototype cars, but they are Lexus prototype vehicles. In business, just because you design something doesn't make it yours. It all depends on how the terms of the contract were laid out. In this particular instance, Five Axis was commissioned by Lexus to modify these vehicles for Lexus. That's why the cars (and hence all the components that comprise it) are property of Lexus.

This would of been a nice kit for the 06-08 ISX50. Surprise no one has try to do a rep kit from it or even copy the design.

Five Axis already produces a Front Lip for the 2006-2008 ISx50..
and its fairly inexpensive..

On a side note:

It would be hard to make a "Replica Kit" from a prototype kit that is One of One.

Plus major companies just like Five Axis Design, hate when companies copy or replicate their exact pieces..
It's just bad business.
