YES, there is a non-illuminated aluminum door sill plate set, but I don't know which specific "package" it's part of.

Yes, the Sports Package has non illuminated scuff plates with 'Lexus' on them. Perhaps cars for the KSA don't have the illuminated ones.

Here is a pic of the non-illuminated scuff plate:

My understanding from a previous post that they were a plug-in-play for the 07's and NOT for the 06's. Can someone tell me if that is a true statement? I would like to install them but without the hassel.

I just did this install on my 07' IS250 AWD with Navi, Preferred and Luxury Pkgs - took less than 10 minutes. Total PNP. Got the plates on special from sewell for about $166.

Cheers.

Yes, please do post pics.

If you can get the IS-F sill plates, are you able to get any other IS-F parts (taillights, shift ****, etc)? Do you mind sharing where you got these parts from? I'm sure alot of people here would like to know as well.

Here's a pic of the white illuminated scuff plates which is for the 08' 2IS and IS-f would be my guess as well.


The blue ones look better since the white ones look like it is inside the scuff plates while the blue ones looks like right on top of it. As you can see in the pics, it looks like the "Lexus" is laminated inside a frame when lit and it's surrounding has some light as well. It's even hard to see from far away based on those pics. The blue ones only light up the "Lexus" part which looks a lot better, especially in the dark.

Here's how mine (blue ones) look:

Thanks. They are clear lenses with blue led light. They match a lot better in person.
