Instead of "Lexus IS" do they say "F Sport"?
It would be great if they did but I think it says "Lexus" on the front mats. I thought I saw a picture some where.

This is concerning.

Can you please take a detailed picture of yours and post, showing where it says "F Sport" and showing the contrast stitching?

The "F Sport" mats are supposed to come with F Sport models?

And can you please post a link to what you are refering?

Please advise!

No the OEM F Sport mats do not say F Sport. The ones you buy from Ebay are F Sport products Lexus sells separately. The only difference between an OEM S sport mat and regular is the red stitching on the mats. I made a thread about it a few months ago with pics.

Only difference is the red stitching? Doesn't make sense.

Wouldn't another difference be that they have "F Sport" written on them?

What about non-red interior F Sports? Do they have red stitching as well?

Mine mats say "Lexus IS" and have red stitching...

I would assume stitching color would match rest of your car interior stitching.

Look up the post about the mats. Mine have no stitching on them and I have an F Sport. Which means they gave me the wrong mats. None of the OEM F Sport mats say F Sport. See the pic vbx posted above. Those are F Sport mats. If someone wants to post pics of a gray stitched F Sport mat please do. I have not seen one.

My mat has a "hint" of silver or light gray stitching along the border. To match the light gray stitching on the steering wheel and everywhere else.

Thanks, vbx.

Wish our cars didn't have the empty switch plates; makes me feel like we're missing options...

Agreed! l We do have missing options. All I have down there is a blind spot switch.
