looking for a replacement. I looked on Sewell and only found the rubber insert. I need the whole wiper arm. I heard that the OEM one are good, any recommendation on aftermarket ones??

you can give sewell a call. i purchased my arms for a gs300 from them about 6 months back. to me they are cheaper to change especially if you maintenance them occasionally. i change about 2-4 pairs in a year depending on useage so it pays itself off.

is it weird that my blades are perfect after almost 3 years of owning the car?

Nope. Just means you have a garage and don't drive your IS

I've used both the Bosch & Michelin frameless blades on previous vehicles with good results, although replacement was always pricey. Last pair I bought for my Tundra was the Michelins from Costco which were the cheapest I could find locally. But recently I had replaced the wiper blade inserts in my company vehicle with some el cheapo inserts at an auto parts chain store, and a month later one of the inserts started coming out of the wiper arm during a rainstorm and put a few scratches on my windshield.
