Default IS F weathertech mats anyone?

Hello-

Joined a few months ago as an IS F was on my radar as my next ride. Picked up an 09' black ISF from one of the members here (Captn???) and am starting to gather / decide on mods. Joe Z exhaust, aFe filter will be ordered today (Joe Z exhaust back-ordered until about Sept). Car already came with Joe Z intake pipe.

I'm interested in a set of weather tech (digital or standard) floor mats and rear cargo tray but weather tech doesn't confirm exact fitment. They're options include IS models, RWD or AWD. I ordered weather tech for other / older cars in the past and wasn't happy with fitment so they were returned (I had to pay return shipping).

Do any of you guys have the weathertech mats (digital or ??) and rear cargo mat?

How well is the fitment?

is there another brand I should consider?

Thanks in advance.

Thanks Zapa, already have these in my shopping cart on Sewell's site but before I pull the trigger, I'd like a complete set of Weathertech's w/ rear cargo mat. Sounds like many don't go with the weathertechs because it's not an exact fit.

I bought a set of Weathertech mats for my ISF as soon as I bought the car, as their production facility in Bolingbrook, IL is a 15 min drive from me.

I use them year round. Fit is dead on perfect. Because of the bucket-like design of them to hold water in, the rear mat 'wall' of the rear mats (being small-ish) fold down a few mm and sag ever so slightly but that's also from drunk friends not giving a *****. Front ones are the ones that I worry about most, and they're fantastic. You have the green light to proceed in purchasing them

Thanks for the input. Did you purchase the standard, all weather mats or were they the digital fit ones?

Did you order the "IS RWD" set?

I took the weather techs off my IS350 and they are a direct fit to the 09 IS-F. weather techs are awesome, I live in Alberta and through pretty heavy snow storms and a ton of rain these have been holding up exceptionally well. They are also a breeze to clean and helps protect the carpet underneath.

Edit:
These are the digital liners from RWD IS350.

Thanks guys, looks like either option (standard all weather or digital fit) works well for the F. Nothing worse than having half assed parts in a luxury ride like our F's.

I ordered them (digital) and I'm very happy. Hands down best floor mat I've had. Living in Canada I wanted something that would really protect the carpet. The bucket like design is great. When I took them out in the spring the carpet was pristine. Great investment.

I purchased the digital fit ones for front seats and rear seats, no trunk. Not a single complaint. It's nice to live nearby as they operate a store-front so if they hadn't fit correctly when I bought them I could've easily returned or exchanged them, as I too was uncertain of their fit. However, you have many ISF drivers the product so have no fear
