Hello, yes, the are original Lexus Parts of 1997 
not the most beautiful parts 
yesterday i would install the LS400 calipers, all ok, shield perfect modified, not a big thing, but my wheels are have to less offset
6-7mm are missing to fit 
i think to sell the parts.. or install 10mm spacers on each side, but looks this good?
maybe.. i will nevertheless post the pictures from the install

Car is coming along nicely.
Its gotta be nice to have the tools and knowhow to make all those small adjustments to make mods work. A guy like me has to pay someone to do everything, although I'm debating whether or not I want to try the manual swap on my '99 myself..
