Ebay Mud Flaps Installed w/ pics
I ordered a pair of Ebay Mud Flaps as the OEM option seemed pretty steep and impractical. They just arrived and I just got them installed.

Took me about an hour to do all 4, a flat head screwdriver tip, a phillips tip, had a really low profile Ratchet Wrench styled tool that took my phillips tip, and a really skinny tipped flathead screwdriver.
Dont forget the elbox grease!
Cant figure out how to upload images here, so I'm dumping them onto Flickr

I can't say as I have no experience with the OEM ones, when I was looking up mudflaps, I think the OEM ones were offered from a UK Lexus Dealer. They fit well, but not snug. If i really wanted to combat it, I would probably get some weather stripping from my hardware store.
I just bought a 2015 IS350 Saturday. Joined the forum 2 minutes ago. First thing I noticed was residue running up the back specifically. It the price you pay for nice flush wheels fitment. I saw the eBay one you point out. I am about to see how much more the stock ones are. Thanks for the post on fitment.
I bought the ones from a UK dealer, and they are fairly larger.

@Darqhelment I just got new tires about a week ago haha, thanks for pointing it out though! so far I havent really seen much crap being flung up there anymore. It feels alot cleaner, and at the time I got them, the bay area was going through a rain phase where puddles and the splash streaks were getting annoying. I think they do the job, and for the price, I'm not concerned about fitment either
Remember, they're not just about the car getting wet IMO, as they would also mitigate rocks and road debris flying up chipping the paint - if you don't mind the look, they can prove to be quite functional, in wet and dry conditions. I might give them a try, as I don't think I'd mind the look - with them being black and my ride being MRM.

I'm not too sure what you mean by sharp edges. I thought about getting some weather stripping or some double sided tape as a buffer (only peel one side), just to completely not worry about plastic rubbing on paint, but I figured because it's not going to be rattling around or moving, I wouldn't have to worry too much. If it does scratch up my paint however, I could either ignore it, replace them with another set, source oem, or try my hand at paint correction.
Thanks for the pics, they look great and very discreet. Was there any drilling involved? Another poster mentioned he had to drill holes into the rear bumper. WOuld be ideal if no drilling was needed.
The short answer is yes, I didn't have access to a drill at the time, so I drove the screw through the body with a screwdriver. As far as holes go, it's not visible when looking at it like a random guy on street would, because it's under the wheel well. I'd recommend taking off the rear wheels to install if you don't have right angle/low profile tools to install. I kinda didn't want to take my wheels off so I just kinda muscled it
