Default 2013-14 to 2015-17 Brake upgrade?

Has Anyone considered trying to upgrade/ convert their breaks from their 13-14 brakes to the Factory Painted F-Sport Brake from the 2015-17? Trying to see if they bolt right up or if there is any modification that need to take place. Mainly looking to do this because of fitment issues and didnt want to go with a big brake set up, any input is greatly Appreciated!!!

Thank you 4GS Fam

It is "brakes" and not breaks.

I don't believe that the 2015-2017 GS350 F Sports come factory painted brake or are bigger than the 2013-2014.
You would need to paint them on your own like many of us have done:

OMG I can't believe I did that.... 😩🤦🏻*♂️ But thank you for the reply. I thought that it's bad to paint the calipers on the car? 🤔

Nope... paint or have them powder coated. GS FSport brakes are all the same unless you are talking about the Factory GS F brakes that come in Orange.... those bolt right up
