Finally!! Found a proper fitting set of ls400 bbk decals!!!
http://www.ebay.com/itm/290698982382...84.m1497.l2649
This guy on e-bay has been working with me to get the proper fitment and has gone above and beyond by sending 8,15,20 and 25 degree curves and even shrink them for me to fit the proper line in the ls400 caliper so as soon as I get time to jack the car up and try the different degree decals I will report my findings for everyone to use as a future reference
Here is a pic of the 1st set which was a blind attempt and was not far off so I am sure one of the sets he sent me will do the job.
Also it comes with rear decals as well!

No problem, I was looking for some for the last 7 months and fell short every time but this guy has been so thorough with making sure I was 100% happy with fitment.

You would have to let him know but I am supposed to get back with him tomorrow with what ones he needs to make for our ls400 caliper exactly.

Ok the 8 degree ones were about spot on all I am going to ask him to do is do 1 in the opposite curve to properly fit the other side,

calipers dont really heat up much. Adding clear over it helps it from un peeling.

He says they won't as the decals have a higher heat threshold than others.
