Thanks for this. I called them yesterday and they have it in stock. I was able to put in an order by phone before they posted them on their eBay store. I got them for $77 shipped.

For anyone interested, as of this time, they still have 1 available on eBay. Link: 2016 Lexus RX350 Mudguards

Thanks for the lead just picked up the set you linked. Our local Lexus dealer in Hawaii still has no clue when they're coming in. Thanks again!!

My dealer says they don't make mud guards for the rx fsport. Looks like these work.

Your dealer is wrong haha, they have this part listed for all RX. Hopefully none of you guys have running boards because my dealer told me you will have to remove the running board before installing the mud guards.

The link says these are compatible for both models.
Is that not true?

It's compatible for all models. My dealers showed me their POS and it shows as compatible for all 4RX's.

So how hard are these to install?
Can someone post the instructions?

Yes sir. My dealer actually installed them for me free of charge so I'm not sure how hard it is to install. They didn't come with instructions but I can't see them being too hard to install. If you can work a drill, you should be able to install them without any issues.

They are somewhat difficult to install because you need to drill 8-10 6mm holes precisely so that the flap sits tight in the precise spot in the designed groove (see picture included of the rear mid flap detail). I also include the instructions that comes in the package to install the 2016 Lexus RX Mud Flaps. Will also post pictures once installed.

yikes. Glad I got the dealer to add these for "post-production"

Wouldn't feel comfortable drilling these bad boys myself.

If you follow instructions step by step you will finish the installation in 30-45 minutes, we did not and took almost 2 hours but were in no rush and had little experience. Bag labeled K2253 are the screws for the front mudguards and bag labeled K2254 are the screws for the rear mudguards. In part 1d of the instructions watch for the different PUSH PIN sizes and where they go. Watch out for the different SPRING CLIP sizes, specially the large spring clip of part 3b of the instructions ( I include a picture of Figure 3-1, liner needs to be pulled and look deep inside). Screw C on Fig 6-1 is too close to the rear tire, you need a small L shape screw driver. Rear easier to install than front. If I had to do it again I could do it in 30 minutes. Good luck!

Just installed my set, I have to agree follow the instructions it'll save a lot of time and make sense of the parts

Great tips from noeldavid, a few other tips:

-You can use a 1/4" drill bit if you don't want to buy a 6mm. Just make sure you drill pilot holes, so you don't have to fight the big, long 1/4" bit

-You can also use painters tape to hold up the mudflap if you don't have extra hands, just make sure to check mudflap is flush with flare before drilling

-To screw in the rear flaps, I used Philips driver bit in 1/4" socket with a 1/4" ratchet

The instructions can be a little confusing, but if you study the overall picture it's not too bad
