Default Floor Mats for ES350

I just purchased a 2007 Lexus ES350. It didn't come with floor mats unfortunately.

Do you guys recommend WeatherTech floor mats for the ES? i am trying to decide whether to buy OEM floor mats or the WeatherTech ones. There is also another "all weather" OEM mats available as well. I just want to know whether the WeatherTech ones look cheap on this car or not.

My feeling is that anything but the OEM mats (which are really hard to keep clean) looks bad on a ES350. I see OEM mats available on ebay from time to time for about $100.

I got mine on ebay for $55 + shipping. Retail price is a ripoff.

I've read that Lloyd Car Mats also make an excellent product.

I have OEM, and then the clear plastic mats over them (the custom kind, not the generic kind). For most of CA, that's all you really need.

OK. Thanks you all for your input. I just picked up an OEM mats from Ebay. Think that is still the best match for the ES.

I personally love my weathertech liners in my ES. Admitted they don't look as good as the OEMs but man are they easy to keep clean and they don't look bad. The fit is superb.

Shucks. I've been out of town on business and just saw this thread. I've got a set of gray mats I would have given you, if that's your color. I changed over to black. Oh well...

How are the black mats working out? I have the gray ones also, and if I even think about putting my feet on them they show the dirt. IMO they look nice but but are a bear to keep clean. I use my winter mats until summer.

Could not be happier. They tie in well with the dash and smokey granite. Had them for well over two years now and they are still not showing much wear except under my throttle foot.

My gray ones are in very good condition given I changed them out a couple months after purchase. All four of them. Would like to get rid of them because I will never go back to that color mat. Just reimburse me for shipping.

I bought the all weather lexus mats about 2 years ago and have not removed them since. My carpet mats are in my trunk, as good as new.
