Repainted the bumpers due to slight fading and the hood due to some paint chips, cleaned the headlights and bought new fogs, added the tte rep lip. Suspension and wheels next then Brake upgrade and engine swap

i did clean the outside of them, the previous owner had clear coat on them that started peeling. they are still a bit cloudy when the lights are on, planning on doing a LS430 retro on them but im trying to find a set of clean oem headlight so i can swap the lenses and keep the titanium housing. did the retro before on my last GS so should be easier this time around https://www.clublexus.com/forums/gs-...-retrofit.html

Yo, I didn't know these brackets existed until I saw your post. Can you update this thread with how you like the setup after you test it a bit?

still waiting to get the rear brackets, won’t be ready for about a month, that was just a test fit to make sure I didn’t need to prefer spacers to clear the front, still got to repaint the calipers, didn’t like the grey too much

Is Suprastore supplying the rear brackets too? It sucks that the steering rack is on the caliper side on our cars. It makes fitting monster calipers very very difficult. I was working on fitting 6 piston cts-v calipers with rcf 15" rotors. I have 40 mm RCA's and still was going to need fig's high-steer ball joints to avoid the caliper. I had custom brackets machined and all but never installed it because I didn't didn't like how the tight the packaging was and the necessity of running specific ball joints.
