Exclamation Interesting news for the GS (Lexus F-sport parts debut for GS)

Just received some info that would be nice to see for the GS IS-C..what's the C?...coupe??)

There is some good news to report on the F Sport line of accessories. The much anticipated launch of the GS F Sport accessories is finally here! The GS F Sport accessories will debut at the Chicago Auto Show which runs from February 13th to the 22nd. In addition to the GS, they will showcase the IS-C and AWD IS with F Sport accessories as well. I do not have a "on sale" date for you yet, but will keep you updated as I get the information, The following is a list of the offerings:

Air Intake (GS 350/AWD)
Brakes (GS350/AWD/GS460)
Engine Cover (GS 350/AWD)
Exhaust (GS350/AWD)
Floor Mats (GS350/AWD/GS460)
Shift **** (GS350/AWD/GS460)
Shocks (GS350)
Springs (GS350)
Sway Bar (GS350/AWD)
19” Wheels (GS350/GS460)
Wheel Locks (GS350/AWD/GS460

if this is all true i'm excited to see the AWD products. someone else please chime in if they have heard any info. sorry if this has been posted already.

I really hope they dont just Shove the F sport accessories for the ISX50 on the GS. Id like to see a whole new set of styling products especially the wheels. Everything else will probably b the same. Isnt the IS architecture based on the GS?

we already know a few things fit like the intake and the brakes. would be great if they are different, but personally i think they probably share the same parts on those

sway bars, that's a good item

also the shocks would be great item for those who are on springs only. now you can stop putting too much stress on stock shocks
