Any of you folks know if the 2013 IS250 RWD will fit on the 2014 IS250 RWD Fsport?

I got these:
Amazon.com: WeatherTech Custom Fit Front and Rear AVM (Black): Automotive Amazon.com: WeatherTech Custom Fit Front and Rear AVM (Black): Automotive

Just snip to fit. I'm pretty happy with them.

It is a shame for weather tech not to include a dedicated all weather mat for the IS. They have the FloorLiner DigitalFit for AWD version of IS though.

Plungy, I wonder after trimming the one you have, is it possible to cover the foot rest area (left) for the driver's side? And how deep is the grooves when compared to the standard US-spec rubber mat?

Mind showing some pictures?

Thanks.

AndyL, I took a quick photo. Hope that helps. If you need more I can post later. The mat slides about an inch forward whenever I get in and out of the car so that's why the gas pedal is slightly covered. Other than that it's almost a perfect fit after minor trimming.

Thanks for the picture. A picture is really worth a thousand words! For the foot rest, it look like the mat is not following the contour of the foot rest because of the rest of the pattern of the mat?

Why not just get factory all season mats for 3IS?

Hm, not quite sure if I'm following what you're asking. I'll upload a pic of the mat outside of the car.

Only bc OEM was like $108 on Sewell, more than 2x the WeatherTech. I know, I know, I already spent so much on the car already but so far no complaints with the WeatherTechs.

Hi Phungy,

Thanks for posting an extra picture again. Now thing starts to make sense to me. I believe you have put the mat on the wrong side. The one you showed should be on the passenger side. Sometimes the shape of the mat is a bit confusing.

Then there is a chance the foot rest gets covered properly if you use the mat on the proper side. Let me know..

No problem. You are welcome. It would be great if you could pose the right driver's mat. I would be interested to know how much it covers the foot rest area.

Were you seeing the Club Lexus discounted price? I got below for ~$80. For the price of the Lexus accessories pack that included floor mats, cargo net and wheel locks, I got all those and all season mats from Sewell too.

http://is.sewellparts.com/accessorie...2014/6273.html


Looks like they added another style for RWD and it's little more @ ~$90.

Best thing about the Lexus floor mats is, it comes with those holes to lock it in place so it'll not move around!

I haven't trimmed yet. Not sure if I want that foot rest (left) trimmed/exposed or covered.

Thanks for pointing that out. I'm digging the 4-pc RWD All-Weather mats over the first link.

No offense intended but if this was my car I'd hurry and trim this driver's side mat properly. The way it is situated is dangerous and could easily cause an issue with your accelerator. Also, if it continued to slip forward each time I got into the car I'd find a way to secure it to the carpet somehow.

Ultimately, I'd just get the Lexus All Weather mats since they can be secured to the floor with the stock anchors and you will not have issues with them potentially getting stuck in your brake and accelerator pedals.

I know i m going to get flamed for saying this. You buy a 45k car but can't buy or afford $90 Lexus mats.
