I talked to Mike @ Original Garage who distributes Studio items and even he has told me they have not finished production yet. I also heard about a few people having them, but Mike says they're still working on them again and even Brian (sakataj) has emailed Ian @ Bold Move about them several times and has had no luck (Same with me). You're hardly going to find them from anyone that isn't a distributor. Your best bet if anything is to email Bold Move directly, but good luck with that. I've contacted Ian about 4-5 times till I gave up and I still never got a price quote. Mike @ OG and I are pretty cool and i'm waiting for him for updates.

My e-mail to Ian:

Afternoon Ian,

I emailed you about a month ago around the beginning of March about your F/R Upper Control Arms for the Lexus 2GS and you said you were out of stock, but would have some back in within 4 weeks or so so you could shoot me info on them.. Pricing etc.. Was wondering if you were able to do that for me now I know it's been about 5 1/2 weeks but i'm hoping that you still have some in stock for me to get info on.

First I just wanted to know pricing, how much would both front and rear run me? Also what's the adjustability like on these arms or do they just replace OEM with stronger arms that come with spherical bushings instead of rubber? Also is it possible to get a photo of the products too?

Thanks again,

-Daniel

Ian's reply:

Hi Daniel,

We are actually still working on the development for the fuca and the had a production delay on the ruca, but I am going out to our production shop later today to check the status on both parts and can give you a better update tomorrow..

We have also released afew other parts for the 2gs .

Toe links
Traction links
and
rear lower control arms.

Again sorry for the delays but I will keep you posted

..... This was late April. I never got an update from Ian either. I asked Mike @ OG about 2 weeks after this and he gave me the same info. Like I said your best bet is probably emailing them directly.

EDIT: Also I have FIGS Toe Links and they work great if you wanna go with those. They're under $200 and I believe Studio makes them also if you wanna go full Studio suspension.

regardless of how many people u know, u not gonna get any,anytime soon. i been waiting since October for them to work out production issues (originally i heard they were switching from outsourcing them to in house making them) but i have stayed in contact with them (lately) and it doesnt seem like they have these issues worked out. even on their FB page they havent said anything about a release anytime soon

can contact them here
