Default F Sport CAI

The installation of my F Sport CAI ordered from Sewell. It was a very simple swap of the stock intake with no mods that I had to do. I did remove the second filter that is factory attached to the air filter box cover to make it breath better. I also installed the K&N High Flow Washable Air Filter. The slide is very busy and I hope I captured all the angles. I just installed it today and have not had the chance to take out on the road. I did start the car, not load, sounds a bit loader than the stock intake.

Like I mentioned, the part was ordered through Sewell advertised to fit the 2013 GS350.
I am assuming that it was an IS350 intake.

No, I only purchased the intake tube and not this kit that your link displayed. Go to the Lexus drop down menu, click on GS350 (2013), then click on "F Sport". You will see the F Sport CAI tube for about $165 (Club Lexus Members only).

I don't know if the filter will fit the stock air box.
