All weather/season mats.
I swung by the dealership this afternoon after work to pick up the all season mats that I had ordered a few days ago. I went ahead and had them order me an OEM windshield sun visor for me as well. Anything else missing from the list that you guys might recommend?

Great idea! Saw one on Ebay for almost $50 for an F-sport license plate frame?!! I hope the dealership price is a little better 
While I was there picking up the all season mats, I asked the parts guy if he had heard anything about F-Sport lowering springs for the 2013 GS 350. Not sure if this guy really knew what he was talking about but he told me that he doubts anything will be coming out soon or if any at all because the new springs will interfere somehow with the shocks and OEM suspension system on the F-Sport. Like I said, not too sure how accurate this info was.
For those of you who haven't seen the mats yet, here are some quick snap pics of what the all weather mats look like after I put them in this evening. I do feel much more comfortable with these in because before I would have to worry about dragging leaves, grass, dirt, etc. on to the carpet mats especially when it has been raining but now I can just hop in an not have to worry about all that since I can just clean the rubber mats much more easier. Excuse some of the dusty scuff marks and what not. Will have to clean those up this weekend when I have more time.

Someone told me the F Sport license frame on Ebay/Amazon is very flimsy and not worth getting especially it's about $50. The parts department said they will have the F Sport lowering springs around summer time and they can do the install and alignment there too.

I believed you have the left and right of the rear mats switched....The mat should not be touching the black cover in the front. Here's my rear left mat:

Yeah I noticed that too. The lips or surrounding edges are pretty shallow. I do feel like the depth is a lot more shallow compared to the carpet mats. You get more of a solid feeling when stepping on to these comapred to the carpet ones as well. I don't think spilling would be a big problem unless you are in the really snowy regions. Here in Dallas we just get the occasional wet shoes or boots from the rain or thunderstorms.
