Default The new optional Premium carpet floor mats from the LS460L fit our LS430 perfectly!

I just put these into my LS430 and they are VERY nice!

They are more then twice as thick as the standard floor mats, very luxurious feels and looks.

The machined aluminum Lexus badge is also very nice. Much nicer then the cloth logo on the LS430 mats.

They are not an exact fit, there are a few area that are 1/4" smaller, but they are totally acceptable to me. Their benefits totally outweight the very small differences in their outline. The retention hooks lines up perfectly.

I found the rear mats from the long wheel base LS460L is a much better fit, the only catch is it covers up the AC vents on the bottom of the front seats, but those vents are almost useless anyway.

These thick mats retail for $278 from my local Lexus dealer.

I got mine from Matt Molini of Lexus of Roseville for $209.95, the sales experience was excellent.

well they are twice as thick And that aluminum logo are not cheap to make. I don't feel Lexus is overcharging at all, it does cost more to produce.

I put clear mats over the factory one, so I don't need to order another set.

But I did get ecru color matt for my 01 UL before from e-bay, $100 and the same as factory.

Here are a few pics. Now that I stared at them more, the fitment is better then I described, I say the fitment is 97%. They worth every dollars.
