Default Aftermarket carpeting

This is a Bummer. I usually buy carpeting from stockinteriors.com but it turns out they dont have carpeting for Lexus'..ANY model. and the few sites I found with Lexus carpeting makes em only for LS SC and RX. I am about to buy my first jzs147 and the carpet is pretty bad. will I have to go to the dealer or is there somewhere else I havent looked?

Im very familiar with the site, i've been using it for years. But unless I am looking for a complete interior I dont see how to search for carpets.

This is totally ot from what your thread is about aftermarket but anyway...

Phone calls and email inquirys
I searched seatbelt since that will tell you what color interior the car has
There are a few places in florida that have cars with tan interior just by searching seatbelt etc...

I pulled the carpet out of mine, steamed it and then dyed it with black fabric dye until it was charcoal gray. Just used a plastic kids swimming pool to soak the carpet. The carpet in our cars has a bunch of foam rubber and padding built into it, I guess that's why it's hard to find aftermarket.
