Installation Notes and Tips

Inspect rotors, calipers, and pad hardware before installation. Clean the caliper bracket contact points, apply the supplied brake lubricant where specified, and confirm the wear sensor style matches the vehicle before assembly. Some Lexus applications listed for this part require a wear sensor sold separately, and certain RC300 and RC200t fitments exclude F Sport Package or orange painted caliper configurations. Verify the vehicle’s front brake setup against the fitment notes before ordering.
