Default Looking for Carrera logo floor mats

Want to buy front floor mats for a '98 C4S with "Carrera" script logo. Does anyone know a source? Did a forum search and did not get a hit. I have already looked at Stuttgart Performance, Performance Products and Mid-America, and could not find what I wanted.

'Carrera' scripts are no longer available from Porsche and no aftermarket company, like 'Lloyds', can make them since it is a copyright infringement.

What color are you looking for? I have a set of cashmere mats with Carrera script that are new.

Vic: Thanks, but I am looking for black mats with red script. Looks like new mats will probably not be available until Porsche authorizes more production.

Yes, there is a source for Porsche embroidered Lloyd Mats with many various script and color combinations. Source is as follows:

STRASSEUSA
(1-877-944-9911 Ask for Gabe)

Please mention that Henry referred you.

Thanks.

Henry,

Gabe is a great guy and very helpful. When I bought my (same as original) Lloyd floor mats from him a year or so ago, he faxed me a sheet with embroidery that was Porsche 'legal'. Mine were black with red lettering. I ended up buying ones that said '911' and put my original 'PORSCHE" ones away.

Has something changed since? Can you now get the Lloyd mats that say 'PORSCHE'?

Mike:

Yes, he has added a few new standard designs including both the words "Porsche" and "Carrera" (different models). You can also combine some, for example, "Porsche 993" or "911 Carrera" etc.

How about these? Ebay. Quality is ok and the price was about $100.00 for the pair. I think they will even custom do the "Carrera" embroidery as they ship from Brazil.

I ordered from StrasseUSA per Henry's recommendation. Got front pair of mats in black with red embroidery. "Carrera 4S" script logo will be on the mat with a red binding on the edge. I guess the logos that are now available have recently been approved by Porsche A.G. Regarding floor mats with a crest, according to Gabe the story he has heard is Porsche would not authorize use of its company crest on a mat because people would be stepping on it all the time. So the crest, appropriately, is at the "top" of the logo hierarchy.
