This could sway some peoples decisions looking at CPO....I'm VERY VERY happy Lexus has expanded the F-sport line.

Looks like rumors of the F-sport LS are more than worthy

I liked the way the red car looked, very different i wish they had more of a selection though than that Mustang GT looking rim, lol!

Are the f-sport rims any wider than stock 245/45/r18????

no worries on the springs with the road magnets available now for the awd's. too funny no wheels for awd...but wheel locks. 19's only....better than none at all. Henry are the tein cst's for rwd only?

Does anyone know what will and will not work for the 450h. Particularly the sway bar and air intake?

Awesome..I guess. I didn't notice GS430 mentioned beside any on the list...especially the Air intake. Can someone verify/elaborate for my ride?

I think I should be on the money here but Henry or Ryan please help if I am wrong.

Braces/Floor mats/Exhaust/Brakes/wheels/sways/springs/ bodykit should be fine for ALL GS 300/350/430/450h/460. Air intake will not fit I am pretty sure b/c its for a different engine and for 350 only. Grill won't fit b/c its a different grill. Engine cover is for 350 only.

One thing about sways, if your 2007+ GS has the OPTIONAL ACTIVE sways, clearly these sway bars will not fit or work.




Yes, a lot of parts are carry over from the IS F-sport b/c they fit both cars and both cars share some parts. IS is based off the GS platform if you didn't know.
