Post Floor mats - what is the best?

Need your opinion on what the list thinks are the best floor mats.
Lloyds? Others?

Don't buy them too light unless you can never put your feet on them. I bought the Lloyd's, with the 944 on them, to match the very light beige interior. I should have pulled them out for camping, winter, etc. They look nice, have clips, etc.; but they are the devil to keep clean.

My buddy just got a new barebones Cavalier, I could sneak in and grab his paper courtesy mats if you'd like..

Seriously, a brand new car without floor mats.. Boggles the mind.

I have the Lloyd's with the "turbo" script that matches my maroon interior. They even sent me three different color swatches to make certain we had a match. Does wonders for the interior...I have seen some contrasting mats (darker than the carpet) that can look pretty awesome and may be easier to keep clean...My car is white; I went with silver script and if I do say so myself: it is stylin'...

It seems that Lloyds are the best, I'll be buying mats soon too. What attracts me most to the Lloyds mats is that they come with a securing system so they don't move around, that's the problem with the mats I have now. I just wish those lloyds mats could embroider "Porsche" or "944 S" <img border="0" title="" alt="[Frown]" src="frown.gif" />

I second everyone's opinion on Lloyd's mats. Got them a few weeks ago. Much better quality than OEM with reinforcing straps.

For the money, Lloyds is the best choice. For looks, there are some sweet-looking mats made by a company in the U.K. that advertises in "911 & Porsche World," but they are $$$.

I've got Lloyd's "944S2" script mats. Could not be happier.
