I bought them through lexus. they are all brand new . you can only buy the black ones or the extra options orange ones which are the ones i bought. they are pricey so be aware of that.

Any chance you have a source to get the F logo? Dealer? I've never asked them. Guess I could...

yep, these are the factory upgraded orange ones if you bought that option at the time of your rc-f build. its like its painted into the caliper itself. looks and feels durable. if you get a sticker and have it clear coated over, I'm sure it would hold up just fine ..ive done that to brembo decals before. sourcing it is the harder part but its not hard to do IMO.

i know you an order the black ones with this logo as well through lexus.

Thanks! i finally can say I'm about 90 percent happy with my car. from here on out, its more of little add ons but the big stuff i want is out of the way. it was nerve wrecking to know if my calipers will clash with my paint but it goes VERY well and I'm sure lexus knew this. after calipers are inside wheels, the shadow even in sunlight goes well with the OEM molten pearl.

Naw, I am just not as committed as you to install my parts like you. I do it in spurts. I really love the quality of your build.

it's weird because I get excited when I see you update...
