looking at tom's site, they have something for the ls460/600, don't see anything for the gs? i would be really interested in finding out more if they have anything for the 3gs, especially if it's something from ap racing

Here's the BBK by Tom's

and very interesting indeed, no rotors, but up to 6 pots in the front. how does that work

I have no clue why they decided against a bigger rotor. Before I got my F-sport BBK, I checked out Tom's and almost pulled the trigger. But as I researched more, I realized actually using stock rotors and costs as much as others. however being made by AP racing is tempting though...

I think I am going to order those or the Fsport. In the process of deciding. The thing is, I can afford the Fronts. What if I just want to match the Rear Calipers with the same paint as the Fronts. I saw a few members with stock calipers with "Lexus" written on them. Are those aftermarket, or just painted? See this for example: http://www.bombgrafx.com/gs350.jpg

The only stickers I found on ebay where the IS200/300. Would they fit, considering I have limited option for items to be shipped to where I live, and those do.

The dealers here told me that the F-Sport brakes DO NOT fit the GS460.
I went ahead and ordered the 19inch F-Sport wheels and gear **** and badge. I am also considering the F-Sport exhaust system. I ditched the springs for Eibach which have a better ride height. But the air intake system will not fit the 460 either.
My car is going into the dealers next week for a full paint job from Mica Red to F-Sport Blue.
