i ordered it from Amazon but they sent me the wrong part so I ended up picked it up from CarQuest. I brought it to the shop and they charged me $85 for changing the brakes and turning the rotors. ACT1118 is the pads for IS 200t and IS 350

Are the front and rears the same brake pads?

Update:
After a few days of driving with the Akebono pads, breaking feels great, just as good as the F-sport. Brakes will be more effective once I break it in.
Best part is, all the dust is practically gone! No squeaking or vibrations.
Installation took about an hour including time to clean the old hardware.
+1 for Akebono. No need to spend $600 on brake pads.

This is the least expensive I was able to find the Akebono ACT1118 ($46.05 for the pair)....but does anyone have experience with this website?

OEM Lexus pads on eBay are $48.

I paid $109.46 shipped from Discount Brake for my Akebono ceramic pads. I'm waiting for a good day to install them. I had them on my Subaru before and loved them so I decided to go with them again. Also had Hawk pads on my Subaru.....much prefer the Akebonos.

I was referring to some members getting Endless pads. $550 + Tax = around $600.

Other than the Akebono's, are there any performance ceramic pads that fit the 2016 IS200t F-sport, or are these the best all around? I hate the brake dust of the OEM pads, so +1 on that, but don't want to lose any of the stopping power that the OEM pads have...
