I will pay anything they ask for those damn sway bars. The GS needs thicker swaybars very very very very badly

Oh happy Monday. I know, I'm 5 days behind.... but what great news to have on a Monday. Definitely need the sways.... would love to see springs. Will probably do the brakes, rims, exhaust, and intake.

hope all those work on the AWD.

ISc looks good.
i'm 100% with you on that, the fact that they debuted those wheels for the f-sport IS seems really lazy/tacky on their part

Finally we are getting F by Lexus!!! As well as the option of getting rid-off ugly chrome on the GS!!!


Before I read this thread, I thought of painting all of chrome pieces and maybe black parts of rear bumper on GS to same color as those plastic trims on the bottom of our doors, I called it "graphite metallic"... what do you think...
Not sure if those "silver satin accents" on the GS' F-Sport is the same color as "graphite metallic"!?!


Overall cannot wait for its official release date!!!

IS-C looks great.

The IS-F Sport wheels look too small on the GS.

I hope you dont mean the 3rd generation Lexus GS, because it looks much nicer than the dated 2nd generation imo. I know each owner will like their generation more, but the world likes the 3rd generation more. It doesn't look like a 10 year old car

I called the Lexus delaership the other day to see if I could have a wait list started for the sway bars because I want to be assure I am going to get mine on the week the parts are released, but the service rep said that at lexus there is not going to be a big need for sway bars. He said there aren't many lexus GS owners that will do to their car what I did and not to worry about the availability of parts

I was hoping they'd release the IS and GS body kits for the F-Sport line but they aren't on that list. This F-Sport IS body kit is more accented than the ground effects kit Lexus USA had and for the GS it would give an easier option than to try to get the Lexus Japan GS body kit. So far it seems Lexus and Five Axis put those on for show only.....
