Wink New IS350 with my 1st Mod (Weather Tech Floor-liners) Review

I'm a long time GS member, just added a new IS350 to my stable.

I really like the design of the Digital Fit Floor-liners from Weather Tech but was never available for my 2GS's but was happy that they're available for the 2IS.. I decide to pick these up and see how they fit, function.

The Digital Fit is everything they say it to be. Took me like 10 secs (literally) to install each side. Great fit, it contours exactly to the Floor board. There is no gaps anywhere, its snug up to the sides of the foot well, its place right on the foot-rest and anchored to the factory clips. These floor-liners did come with their own anchors but the factory clips worked fine.

Its been raining lately and I had a chance to try them out. Getting in and out with wet shoes is not a problem. I was worried that they might slip because the finish is smooth looking but it has a good texture to it. Its definitely more durable than its refined looks. The material is very Thick composite plastic which is able to bend but holds a rigid form. I highly Recommend these. They come in Black, Tan, and Grey. I got grey to match my grey interior. Pics to come..

I bought it from our CL Vendor - Xenon Depot / KB Stuff -- https://www.clublexus.com/forums/clu...-save-big.html

Nice... I'll get some weather floormats when the next rain season hits.

My car got messed up with mud when wife and I decided to take a friend to hiking after rain. Good thing I was able to get rid of the carpet mud stains.

You can also get clear bra as the next mod. That was my first mod on the list... they can save your paint.

I had the full set of Digital Fits in my RX450, and honestly... protection... I liked... BUT they are too "plasticky". I would prefer them to be more "rubberized" and more flexible... just my opinion though.

1QWKGS4,

Thanks for taking the time to post up some pictures of the WeatherTech Floor Liners. I'm glad to hear and see that you are happy with your purchase. I use WeatherTech in my personal vehicles as well =) I love them so much that I leave them in the car all year.

Steve
