Default Chinese Floor Matts - Ali Express ?

My apologies as I spent 30 minutes looking for the original thread and the search function is lacking.

Did the person who bought the floor matts from Ali Express get these and any feedback on fitment/quality ?

I agree, I'm going to order a set with dark silver stitching (if they will do it). I will report back. I like the fact the offer some sill protection and for the money they seem like a great deal since all but rubber mats wear out in a couple of years anyway.

I know I was raised better, as in "if you don't have something good to say, don't say it", but those are obscene. There I said it. Those go way beyond the "everyone's taste is different". Kudos to anyone putting those in your car on the bravery scale.

The pics he post on 6 Speed were awful. I thought they are extremely busy and would give me a headache with the red and black stitching. Sorry but just my opinion.

Yeah I've got to agree... those are pretty bad.
Even if the quality was better, it's just too much "leather".
Perhaps if the material was more of a conventional carpet...

What better place. Funny how one person can look at something and think it is cool and to another it is blasphemy. To me the slant nose, RWB and singer cars are awful but obviously others find them attractive.

Floor Mats are always about protection and the Porsche ones suck. I was cleaning my carpet last night and even that sucks. I guess they were trying to save weight or something but wow the carpet in the 991's is as paper thin as the paint.

YMMV, happy Friday !

Those are awful. If protection is a concern, just get some Weathertech mats for the winter. I swap those in and out every winter/spring.

My personal opinion with floor mats is stick oem and enjoy them. If they fade or wear its so easy and relatively inexpensive to buy a new oem set.
