Question where should I buy cap & rotor

I want to buy cap & rotor for LS400. Is it better to go with Lexus parts ($$$) or can I go cheap and buy them from local parts stores?
I don't think there are much difference between Lexus cap & rotor, and local parts store cap & rotor but..... what do you think?

Spend the money and buy genuine Lexus parts.....don't buy aftermarket. The cap and rotors don't cost much. Remember you are driving a Lex. if you want to save a few dollars, you can go to your local Toyota dealer parts dept and get OEM parts for less.

I agree, you should buy original parts for your car, unless it is an expensive part like PS pump and engine components, but, otherwise for wires and plugs get the real deal.
