Here is the part numbers for the white clips: 90467-A0005, the blue clips: 90467-09203.
I forget how many of each on the doors, something like 3 blue clips and everything else was white. Also only buy oem, not the knockoff eBay ones, they don't fit the same(i learned the hard way).

Any idea what the parts for the bamboo versions are? I love my flaxen interior, and it would look so sharp w the bamboo.

You need to find a junkyard 450h to get the bamboo. That's what I have, agreed best match with flaxen. I also managed to find an oem bamboo steering wheel last year and swapped it out.
Search car-parts.com to search all the junkyards.

I got the GSF trim installed a few days ago. I decided to go with the black trim option rather than silver. I just felt it looked cleaner with the red/black interior I have. All the doors, cupholder, shifter, and rear AC vent were 1 for 1 swaps. Unfortunately, the front console dash pieces are slightly different and so are the AC vents. The GSF has lines that flow from the trim to the side of the AC vents, the GS350 does not have this. I have yet to decide if I am going to modify the GS350 vents and chisel an area where they can fit the trim or to just cut off the excess trim. In addition, the GSF vents function the same as the GS350 but they are re-designed so they do not fit into the ducts coming from the AC so using them is not an option. See last picture for what I am talking about.

You have the passenger side gs f air vent just swap it and buy the drivers side. Then you can clip the gs f trim in correctly.

Nope, as I mentioned in my post, the GSF vents are re-designed, they do not fit into the AC duct system. Wish it were that easy considering everything else was!

You could wrap your existing silver trim satin black, seems like the most cost effective way to achieve the look your going for.

I am planning on going this route for the two side dash pieces because they chaff against the side of the door sometimes and it annoys me, lol. However, I bought the center clock piece trim that the eBay guy did not sell me. I bought it from MegaZip.net and had it shipped from the UAE Warehouse. I know our GS' have the two little buttons to adjust the clock manually, but the GSF and some of the newer cars do not have the manual option. I am wondering if should drill holes in this one so my existing clock can fit... any thoughts or advice?

Yes, I have the craft edition. I bought them off eBay. There are a few sellers you can probably find selling them. And the install guide... well... peasodos could probably help you with that since he has installed them on his car.

you make a good point on ebay. found these sunshades so gonna give them a shot. screen shades are screen shades so hoping these fit well and stock ones still require hooks to be on teh window except this is much cheaper and less work. https://www.ebay.com/itm/292036155214

Elvin offers CF trim kit (vents and center clock moldings too) for GS 350 but they are pretty pricey.

This wasn't a GS F change but rather a 2016+ model year change. Either way, the CF trim looks awesome & you got a great deal on it! No one knows how to take these cars apart like you do so I'm sure you'll figure something out!

am I the only one that cannot see the difference in the extra AC trim? can someone point out what is the difference? I'd like to purchase one for my 2015 GS F Sport but wouldn't want to buy something that I can't get it to fit.
