Default Fake Brakes

HAHA, yea thats right im a poser!
Flame on me all you guys want but i think that these would look kinda cool on my IS. call me lame, call me gay call me a loser, but i do have a lexus. and a freggin IS300. Plus the OEM brakes are pretty damn good. 60000 dollars for big breaks? or 20bucks for some fake big breaks..

I wouldnt get the brembo or endless stickers, but now id finally be able to have gold rotors ive all wanted. lol

posers unite!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!














Let the flaming begin.............

Whatever im more worried about how fake plastic big brakes will look more than peeling off,

whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy????? You are still going to be able to tell they are fake unless you buy some aftermarket drilled or slotted rotors....I cant believe those are going to be put on a LEXUS.....maybe a civic, maybe a focus, maybe a cobalt, but a Lexus?!!?!?!

You can afford TOMS wheels yet you feel the need for $20 fake brembo covers? Embarassing.....

I agree w/ Rashoodz, arabs do have the worst taste.....

The most important point is yourself know it is fake and you cannot afford Brembo.
Otherwise, looks great!

Im sorry but im really gonna have to completely disagree wtih you guys.

I considered getting real big brakes when i first got my car, but after some discussion and seeing how well our OEM brakes perfome there really is no need for big brakes. When it comes to tuning i only want the best for my car, esp when its schit that matters. Trust me i wont go the cheap route on mechanical/Engine tuning.

But just like body kits are for show, in our case so are big brakes for our car. Just as people on here have no prob putting on SEIBON instead if INGS cause its not worth the extra cash, its the same with brakes. If someone can give me a good reason why i should get the real big brakes then i might change my mind. (other than for braggin rights)

BWT lets not forget that LEXUS is an over glorified Toyota at the end of the day. This aint no lambo

This ain't a lambo, that's for sure. But I think Lexus has earned a little more credit by now than for someone to say its an over-glorified Toyota. Lexus uses the top quality parts, technology, workmanship to give you the amazing car that you now own.

If you know the OEM brakes work well, why don't you just paint your stock calipers gold? That would look just as good, but without the rice.

I have to admit though, whoever came up with this idea owns a Geo Metro or something equivalent.
