There's the link to VIP's site that has them for sale... Pricey kit for everything.... I found my set from a guy that had it on his IS 250 (same parts) and I got it for around 1/3 of retail! (except no rear shock tower bar) I should probably put up pics of the install on a thread on here... actually I think maybe I did, but i'm not sure
...LOL I'll try to find it and if I didn't have one, then I'll start a thread about it with pics...
Also you'll see there is an iCode front and rear sway bar avail for the F on their site, but Pricey ($1200) and I don't know if anybody is using it on CL that I've heard of....

Ok.. found the thread... hope you don't think I'm trying to thread jack... just trying to be helpful regarding the above question regarding the Tom's bracing
https://www.clublexus.com/forums/is-...pressions.html
An update of my impression with several months of DD and 2 track days with the current setup (that also includes Michelin PSS's 245 and 275 widths and Carbotech XP 10's and 8's brake pads F&R.) is that I much prefer the handling compared to previous. It DEFINITELY has less body roll and less understeer. In fact it does have slight oversteer at this point, and hopefully it won't get me into trouble on the street or track... I may eventually go to the less aggressive Sikky sway bar setting that is more comparable to the F-sport sway bar, but I'm waiting to see how the Coilovers that I'll hopefully be getting in the next few months affects that first.
