What does "EDM" mean?
If you are talking about the gen 1 LS400 mudflaps that were available as an official Lexus accessory, then installation does take some drilling. I may still have the installation instructions I used to install them on my 90 LS but they are a little difficult for me since they are in Japanese.
The lower body cladding on the 93-94 LS is thicker than on the 90-92 LS400. I would be surprised if the two series of the gen 1 LS used the same mudflaps but I can't say for certain.
When I installed the mudflaps on my 90 LS, they fit like a glove -- fit the contours of the lower body cladding perfectly.
You can look up the part numbers for the two series of gen 1 LS400's here: http://www.t o y o d i y.com/ Remove the spaces from the website URL to make it work.

alright thanks for the input mine dont fit that all too well. i ask because the 90-92 had the thinner side pieces and i guess no side skirts? vs the 93-94. i'll take a look at the site when i get a chance.
oh EDM as European Domestic market.

What you are calling "European Domestic market" mudflaps should fit the U.S. spec LS400 just fine. U.K. and European spec Lexus cars are different from U.S. models in an incredible number of ways but not in this regard.
The mudflaps I bought from a U.K. Lexus deaker in 1990 (before Lexus offered them in the U.S. as an accessory) fit my U.S. spec 90 LS400 perfectly. I am not certain but I think mudflaps were standard in all model years of the LS400 in both the U.K. and in all European countries.

In the attached photo, can you see the mudflaps the 1990 LS400 I bought new and then drove 13 1/2 years? Hard to tell isn't it? Both my next door neighbor amd I bought new 1990 LS400s and both of us installed Lexus mudflaps. We both even installed the stainless steel wheel trim of the type that was popular back then on Mercedes S-class cars.
