Formula271--can you post a pic of the rear premium mats--I have never seen them and hate the black--just not practical for Canada--Lexus includes the all weather mats here as well as standard equipment but they cover as much area as a bikini--love to see how much of the floor area the rear mats cover--actually i'd love a pic of the fronts too if it is not too much trouble. Thanks!

The rear mats are definitely no bikinis. The RH and LH rear mats completely cover the rear floor and meet line-to-line in the center of the floor behind the console. There is basically no gap between the mats.

Again, I urge everyone with a model year '10 or newer RX to get these mats. They are the easiest, as well as surprising, way to add tangible luxury to your vehicle.

Thanks so much--much better looking than those black mats that show everything! I wish they would give us a choice- I understand some folks like that black but for northern climates the black is not better than anything else.

I have to caution, however, that these mats nicely match the parchment interior. I honestly can't imagine this color looking appropriate in a black interior.

Also, as far as masking dirty appearance is concerned, typically darker colors are much better. For example, my '05 still has the original mats and has been thru multiple Michigan winters. Physical pieces of debris may be better masked by the lighter color, but general soil is most definitely masked by the darker colors. I certainly wouldn't by these in a light color thinking it would be easier to maintain a "cleaner" look.

 

Lexus does have new GRAY RX 350 mats. They actually say Lexus RX are gray with beige writing. They replaced mine which were falling apart.
