Default Front Strut Bar for GS350??

Does anybody know of any other company besides TOMS that offers a front strut bar for my gs350?? I was trying to avoid paying the $405.00 for the TOMS.

Welcome to CL.......The other brand that I can think of will be the Lexus F-Sports but it is not going to be available for another month or two. So if you really want something right now you have to go with TOMS.

I am also waiting for the F-Sports and its price. $405 for Tom's is abit too much for the strut tower brace IMO.

The sway bars are out june first. I am all over it. I still think the car is not going to feel great whith the electric/ numb steering, but its a start. I just want to get rid of some of the body roll. I drive through construction sites on the way to work that have the road coned off so drivers have to make a series of low speed sharp turn and DAMN its leaning like a stoned teenager

I love the GS but if I can fix the roll issue It will be my all time greatest car..... Thats BS this thing will never handle like my hooked up G35, but its a huge step in the right direction

There is no point in purchasing the TOM's bar unless you want to be uber JDM and pay a premiun for it. You'll probably end up paying more than $400 since the exchange rate is so crappy these days, not to mention shipping charges as well. Furthermore, wait time to even get it will be 2-3 months, so you might as well just wait for the F-Sport and save some money for other stuff. I bought it through L-tuned a few months back when it was only $328, but they told me it would take 4 months so I canceled the order, kinda regret it now............lol
