Default Splash guards for 2025 ES350

I remember reading something on this forum regarding purchasing and installing splash guards for a 7th generation; and that you will have to take off the rear wheels to install the rear splash guards. I just purchased and installed splash guards for my new 2025 ES350 and the guards I purchased fit into existing holes and with the existing fasteners without taking off the rear wheel. There are 3 types of fasteners to remove, 1. The standard fasteners that you can remove with a screwdriver or another flat tool, 2) the fasteners on the bottom that can be removed with a socket, and 3) one fastener in each rear wheel well that has a round hole in the middle which can be extracted with needle nose pliers. This is the link to the splash guards that worked for me. Fronts took 15 minutes and are easier to do if you turn the wheels to get out of the way during the install. The rears can be done with fairly minimal effort leaving the wheels in place.

I have a 2025 ES300h and have been looking for some nice looking splash guards. Is this the best brand and style to get? I went to a Lexus sight and I believe they were wanting $200 for the set, which I thought was kinda high.

I have a set of glossy blacks like his on my

2021 ES 350. Perfect fit, very simple installation just as he described. Cost me under $50 as I recall.

Also bought these speaker covers I’m pleased with. Check ‘em out. Simple installation as well. They look nicer than in the picture and really dress up those speaker covers.

I will be real honest with you. I have owned a 2019 ES350 since it was new and I would not recommend them. There is really no need. I have owned cars in the past that needed them because the car took a beating, because of the design but I do not fond that to be the case with the ES. Just my 2 cents.

I had installed these guards onto my 2013 ES and also on my 2019. On the '13 I did remove the rear wheels to facilitate fastening the guards to the plastic rear quarter. They are very heavy and almost impossible for one person (68 Y.O.) to do. On my 2019 I bought a 90 degree Phillips screwdriver and used it without removing the wheels. The guards have been on for almost 6 years so far w/o issue and I believe that not only do they look good on my car but also save the paint.

Absolutely no need for them, for sure. I just find them to be a nice touch. To each his own.

I had dealer installed splash guards on my 2011 Camry, I thought that they helped some. I haven't had my 2025 ES300h long enough, now 4 days, to form an opinion if they would be helpful or not.

These were $46. Seems like they are decent quality and they fit the existing holes used for the inner fenders.

I agree - my ES is now six years old and never gets gunk behind the wheels. Some folks get them just for the look as opposed to the actual functionality.

I was able to buy OEM body side moldings from Lexus, however I couldn’t find the OEM splash guards. You wouldn’t by chance have a part #? I’m working on a 2023 ES300h Luxury, white Pearl on palomino.

There are no OEM splash guards only aftermarket.

If you are not planning on installing the body side moldings yourself have a local body shop do it. The local Lexus dealer wanted $357 to install the body side moldings on my 2025 ES300h. A local body shop did it for $50.

Thanks. I was able to install on the Mrs 450h, as someone was kind enough to put the instructions up on this site. Just need a tape measure, a pencil, and painters tape.

I like these. Could you share with us where you purchased these?
