I ordered mine from eBay. It was $36.50 shipped. For the price I paid it's not a bad kit. The mounting screws provided for the license plate to attach to the mounting plate are loose so I went to homedepot and got replacement screws and bolt for $0.98. Here's the link. http://m.ebay.com/itm/2006-2012-GS300-GS350-GS430-GS450-GS460-TOW-HOOK-LICENSE-PLATE-ADAPTOR-KIT-FRAME-/121292620193?txnId=1577092101002

Cool! Post pics when you get it. I originally had my plate in the right lower corner of my windshield and decided it wasn't safe to have it there in case an accident happened. So I searched online and found this kit. Beats paying over $100 for it like some members have.

New tires & no more rubbing! Tanabe Strut tower brace installed
Nothing too exciting but I did put some new rubber on the car and a tanabe strut tower brace bar.
Old tires were kumho ecsta with 285's in the rear which caused some slight rubbing still after having the fenders rolled. Put about 11kmiles on them and the rears were down to the wear bars.
New Tires are Continental extreme contact DWS06. I went down in size to a 275/30/20 in the rear and any rubbing I was having before is completely gone now!
Also, these tires are very quiet and much smoother on the road compared to the previous cheap kumho's. They also have quite a good tread wear rating so they should last longer I hope.

I'm currently running 20x9 38 offset all around on my RWD GS. I'm not lowered and don't plan on it. I'm on falken tires. No issues so far.
