Driving Impression: On the way home the steering felt nice and tight. Making turns at high speeds seems to make the car feel more "responsive and solid". I did feel more of the little bumps in the road but nothing major. I biggest difference I've noticed so far was pulling into my driveway. Usually my car creeks when pulling in and this time I didn't hear one creek at all. So far so good..... Very high quality stuff from Japan...

Nice. Does the stock setup have anything that corresponds to the front link, or is it truly "extra support" that is added by this brace? Was this a DIY install? If so, please share the steps that you took to do the install.

If you look in the pics, the links actually attach to the brace. Before I bought the TOMS, I looked at the TRD brace and it did not come with any links and it was much thinner.
Install is a piece of cake.... of course, you need a car lift to get your car high enough in the air to do this. Everything is a straight bolt on. Remove the old and slap on the new. The links took most of the time. Total time to do the install was about 15 min (Lexus Tech did the install). Of course, I watched....
Oh well. Congrats on the new mod.
