Default Floor mats. Let's see em'

Trying to decide on a color scheme.

Would be awesome if a bunch of you guys would post pics of your interior, por favor!

Trying to decide on what looks best since oem is getting redonkey to find (grey/silver color)

Plus, she's my daily. So what has held up for you guys?


(p.s. prolly going through Llyod's since I get that nice pca discount)

I got OEM mats which weren't cheap but worth the money IMO for fit and quality. Look like they will last for years. They came with clips that fit to seat mounts to stop them slipping around too. Might be worth seeing if your colour is still available(mine had to come from germany)
peace

fintro, is yours a celebration too? (88, zermatt)

That would be much appreciated, since...well, all night long I was thinking of black with silver block! LOL! Double appreciated if your interior is the silver/gray like I have as well. Then I'll really know what to expect!

I'd love to have the oem, but in the amount of how fast it gets dirty on the sides, I can't imagine the WHOLE floormat! I kinda regret not getting the seat covers in black, but the charcoal is much cooler in the summer. (if you can imagine that)

and punky, I feel ya on "coming from Germany". A few parts had to come from germany for my girl, lol! Like; the most expensive paper clip I've ever bought, lol! (the automatic shifter spring)

I re-carpeted my car with generic automotive pile. The mats I made from leftover material. Don't have the fancy vinyl edging but they look fine and get the job done.

YES! LOL!

It was like $7 at the dealership. Straight outta Germany...lol! When I picked it up I was all, wow...most expensive paper clip ever. Then it took me a bit to figure out how the hell they installed it.

Funny now, it worked perfect for like three days, now it's touchy. Really makes the ocd go into overdrive, lol!

Still, nice knowing I fixed it.

I just got the mats tonight, I will take pictures of them installed tomorrow after work but here is a preview.

LOL!

Clearly I'm way more excited about this than you are, lol! Then again, I did pull the grey mat out my other car to have two mats, lol!

I regret not buying $10 mats (they had the black with red script). So, I didn't buy them. Should've. Would be perfect for "who gives a crap winter/bad weather" mats.

darn it.

Still kicking myself for that one. Well, that and the $150 perfect Celebration seats. Darn darn!

sweet.

and yeah, no smoking in the car! I don't even like eating or drinking. I let it slide ONE time, bam french fry grease. Never more, LOL!

I did have one female friend that was nice (and had class) enough to ask, "Want me to take my shoes off?" Heels really aren't that bad.

I still tell people, "Open door, SIT first, click feet together three times, slide in, gently...GENTLY close door".

It's a Porsche, not a monster truck needing a slammed door!
