so, any update about the IS250 floormats? What years are compatible?
For my SC300, i recently purchased a set of WeatherTech Trim to Fit mats, and after some trimming with a box cutter, they fit quite neat.

I think what others do and attempt to locate some at a salvage yard and do my best to clean them up. Theres a local detail guy with a bad *** extractor/steam cleaning device so I'll see what he can do with it.

Well...
Are they OEM sc300/400 fit? No.
Driver mat: No, 1-2 inch short in certain areas
Passenger: Almost OEM
Rears: Little bit shorter
Are they something worth considering? At the price of $63 shipped, yes. (bought used, new like condition) The fabric is different, more of a stronger fiber texture just like any new car. Fitment is not that bad. Driver side about 1-2 shorter in places, mostly where you don't rest foot at. Passenger is almost OEM. Rears are shorter but I prob have 1 person ride in rear a year. I'll prob remove backseats anyways... You will have to install additional hooks, which is not bad and easy to do. Also more likely to stay in place.
Also, my sc300 mats where 8/10, one corner of lexus label and minor stitching coming up. Will be cleaning them and prob posting fs
EDIT***** Just did a quick search and the I have the is350 AWD floor mats. Were advertised as rwd, will handle on monday. Looking online is350 rwd mats look oem sc300 fit!!!

Sorry guys I haven't posted the pic. My car went in the shop a day after I posted that for paint and a few other goodies. I'll be by the shop to check out the progress of it this week and get some pic!

Sweet, I'll be looking forward to it. My car is going in for an interior detail this week to try and salvage what they can for now to hold me over until I redo the whole interior. I'd like to add some new floor mats to that this week.
