LexusPartsNow has them for $16 (what I paid) plus shipping, but other sources charge $50 and up (plus shipping) for the exact same item / part number.

Yes. Look at pictures on previous page.

Default Thanks!

I would have never known to look for such a deal. I ordered two sets. Thank you for the heads up!

Well, it's been 2 weeks, and nothing has arrived yet....
Hopefully soon.

The box showed up today. Front and rear sets with the hold down clips. They almost match my RX300 perfectly, so I may use them in that car instead...

So far they look great. Had the Toyota packaging and everything was sealed

After the reviews and of course price I broke down and orders 2 sets. For $32 you can't beat it. I am going to dye a set black when they come in and I will post results. My carpet is black and I want it to match.

i was going to dye a set but searching google on painting or dyeing floor mats it seams the paint or dye doesnt last,wears off fast.i put a set in my 86 mr2 which has black carpet.after a day it doesnt bother me as these mats dont slide around.keep us posted on the painted mats when you get them.

My idea from what others have done is to soak them in the liquid dye for 12 or more hours and then let them dry. I think as long as they are not washed frequently it will last. But I do need to test. I will let you know. Maybe a combination of both.

the mats you will get doesnt have much pile to it.its like the fabric was applied with a paint roller.if you get it done i will give it a shot too.

I just put in an order due to the great price. Although this part shows up as charcoal, how does the item look taupe/tan? Hopefully I will get the tan color as that is what I need.

Mine came from from Nalley Lexus as well. Wish they would have given me an option for local pickup. Man is the quality bad vs the originals. I'm tempted to just thoroughly wash my original mats and just sell these ones on eBay or craigslist. They do look more like a very light grey vs charcoal.

The mats have grown on me a bit. Not so much the quality but the color contrast. Maybe just having something different then black everywhere. Now I'm thinking about painting them to match my interior leather. That might look nice. Saddle mats.

Just resurrecting an old thread here for some of our newer members. I just ordered another set for the new LS, since they are a close match. My LS came with cheap aftermarket floor mats, which I promptly gave to my son for his Sonoma.

They should be here within a wee or so...
