On your GS350 F Sport? Do you know if it will fit a ‘13 AWD F Sport?

Here is my RWD setup, all purchased from Skylar at Wheelwell with promotion codes and I saved a ton of money, nearly 40% off. No brake squeal at all with aftermarket rotors and Akebono pads. It stops like OEM, even with the lack of surface area from the drilled/slotted rotors and I have 20x10 and 20x11 3-Piece Forged Wheels,. The brake spongy feeling is also gone, but that improvement of the sponge feeling is also aided by the FIGS front LCA bushings. These wheels are very heavy and the new rotors and FIGS really helps to prevent nose diving.

- Stoptech Front Drilled/Slotted Rotors
  • Front Left 127.44204L
  • Front Right 127.44205R
- Stoptech Rear Drilled/Slotted Rotors
  • Right Rear 127.44189R
  • Left Rear 127.44189L
- Stoptech Stainless Steel Brake Lines
  • Front 950.44003
  • Rear 950.44504
- Akebono ACT 118 Front Ceramic Brake Pads
- Rear pads are OEM and still have quite a bit of life left.
- Motul Dot 3 & 4 Brake Fluid

It took me awhile to come up with a suitable answer.

I just want stainless steel brake lines. Plain and simple.
