I haven't seen knock off fenders yet available for the LS460. With that said, if they were offered for our car, I wouldn't suggest getting them. The fit and quality is so unpredictable that if you received a bad set, you'd end up paying extra to get them to fit and finish right.
Keep an eye out in the classified ads. Id even pm guys that have them and offer to buy them. Youd be surprised how many people would be willing to sell their parts so they can get something new/different.

You may be able to get it done cheaper by customizing your oem fenders with a similar design. I've seen several members on different platforms go this route. That's if you can afford the down time of having your fenders off and in a shop being worked.

Nat, do the Wald fenders have the same clearance as OEM ? Just curious, as the Aimgain is about .5" narrower than OEM. Thanks

There aren't many fender vents out there that are actually functional. Even in the OEM majority are for the look.
