Default Interior swap help......

I’m looking to buy all black interior for my 06 is250, but don’t know how much it will cost. I wanted to know if it worth it or just leave it how it is.

to buy the swap from a dealership will cost you thousands of dollars and is not worth it. Your only other choice is to wait for a swap to come up, but I have never once seen someone with black interior wanting to swap for another color, so its going to be very rare.

Clazzio could be a an alternative, then taking the side panels to an upholstery shop and custom your side panels and such

Its not worth it esp from a resale perspective! But don't let that stop you....I swapped my tan interior to Black years ago and its been great. To each his own.
Be warned the knee airbags, over head console lighting and seat belts add up $ quickly. Oh and the seats, carpet, headliner, rear tray, 3rd brake light, you get the point. $$$$ lol

I had a tan interior in my IS350.. try as I might, I could NEVER get over it. I absolutely love black interiors, and finally am back in one. No, I didn't swap.. costs too much.. I just bought a new IS.
