Scion Hawaii was blowing out the 5 Axis kit for $250! Was lucky to get the last one. Had the front end re-painted with the kit since it was all chipped up. Before putting the grilles back I decided to paint the radiator support, horns, etc for a cleaner look.
I don't know how you guys with the slammed xBs do it. I'm only running NFs and I've scraped up the front trying to be really careful on driveways.

Hope you guys like it.

looks beast foo!!!!
i<33 ur box stance looks loweer with the kit too...
btw what paint did u use on ur hubs?? they look sweet!!!

i scrapped for the firsst time yesterday on a speedbump lol! im on tein stechs..

nice piks also

 

damn that is an amazing deal!

 

Thanks! I originally wanted to get DFs but I didn't want to scrape... Oh well.

The paint is Rustoleum Professional spray paint in semi-gloss black. The pro series has a better spray pattern and a lot more pigment so it lasts longer. I sprayed them over 2 years ago! Getting hard to find here.

 

Where could i find such paint? Can u post a close up? Wut love to try this on my hubs...did u sand prime base coat it and clear?

 

Home Depot here still carries the line but they rarely bring in semi-gloss.
Thoroughly clean
Wet sand with 400, rinse and dry
2 mist coats with flat black as a primer. You should still see some silver
1 medium coat semi-gloss
1 or 2 full coats of semi-gloss
No need for clear
30 min between mist and medium coats
45-60 mins between med and full coat
No need to sand between coats if you use these dry times
Let sit for 4 hours then put out in the sun for a couple more.
Let them sit overnight and put them back on your car.
Wait 30 days and wax 'em.

Might seem like a lot but it really isn't. If you do it good the first time it'll last a long time!

 

Is the wax really necessary. Or is it to keep the gloss..

 

Thanks for the diy dude...ima. Have to check out home depot...u used 2 cans of the paint or 1

 

The wax helps keep them cleaner longer, protect the sheen, and help prevent the brake dust from sticking.
Pretty sure I did all 4 with one can.
btw - the flat black was also the Professional series paint.

 

thanks for posting pics! i have been waiting to see a lowerd B with the 5axis kit and on stock wheels. The Nf's look good but i would still like to see what the Df's look like.

 

is this the paint dude?

 

That's the stuff!

 

Seriously crazy deal on that lip kit.

Looks good!

 

Looks real good. They should have came with that stance from the factory!!!

Awesome deal on the kit too

 

Thanks! It was an amazing deal!

And I agree - that stance and body kit should have at least been an option. although the front does scrape sometimes on driveways.

 

Wheels will complete it!!! So many to choose from...
