Default Aftermarket IS350 BBK on GS350?

Hey CL, tried a search and didn't get what I was looking for (most threads were specific about OEM IS350 BBK and not aftermarket). Anyway I'm curious if anyone knows if an aftermarket IS350 BBK is compatible on a GS350. I recently switched to F-Sports on my IS so I'm selling my full set of Rotora's. Now I know the IS/GS share a lot of components and wasn't sure if it'll apply to aftermarket for these cars. Point in case I have the Rotora BBK listed in the 2IS classifieds, but if it's compatible for 3GS then I'll post in the 3GS classifieds too. Just want to give other members a chance to take their car to a whole new level as we know BBK does! Anyway appreciate any feedback!

Yes bud compatible. My Jun brake BBK was advertised for the IS and fit the GS perfectly.

I like to keep as close to OEM as possible. So now I'm giving another member a chance to do it up big

That's why

I bought the calipers used, not pads no rotors just the calipers (Front and rear) from one of CL member. the total cost finished (new Raybestos Rotors front and rear, new project mu pads front and rear, front ISF wheel hubs and professional paint job) is cheaper then just front set of Brembo GT and i feel at least 30% gaining in breaking power from my stock GS450h break and very smooth too.
