I've heard that you can't get Muz anymore, so it's not really an issue if that is the case.

I bought the Premium OEM ones a few years ago and I love them. I think they look nicer than any of the aftermarket products IMO. But I'm biased since I won't let anything aftermarket near my 100% stock S2K.

The Rick's and Muz mats look awful compared to the OEM premium. The material on the premium mats is a huge step above any of the others I have seen. The mats that try to cover the entire passenger floor area including that hump look really cheesy because they aren't formed to fit it. Not to mention the materials and silly pin striping.
??? I have a set of ricks mats and I think they look pretty nice. They are thick and plush and they ARE formed to fit over the hump. No pinstripe either just black. My only regret is that they didn't come in red, then again I have red/black interior so it wasn't that big a deal.
Just my opinion. I'm glad you like them. I just think trying to cover up that hump looks a bit strange for some reason.

They were actually $400 for the LHD version initially I believe.

the vendor set the price shipped to the US at 219.95 pounds, which as of 8:0Xam PST, Friday, equaled a full $377.xx payment via Paypal. that was according to Paypal's auto currency conversion payment system. i ended up sending a deposit for now. bear in mind that the 219.95 pound price is set, but depending on when you send your payment & the current exchange rate, the price we pay over here fluctuates. i don't keep up w/FOREX, but if i would've sent my payment Thurs afternoon, instead of Fri morning, it would have only been $366.xx.

btw, a heelpad would've been nice on these Premium mats, but you can always have one stitched onto it or add a bling bling skidplate. i was actually going to have a heelpad added to my regular OEM mats a while back cuz i couldn't find any aftermarket mats i really liked.

For anyone questioning the price, let me tell you right now that you need to get on these. I bought my set in 09/10 from S2X back when he was doing 10 at a time group buys from Japan. I paid ~$420 for my set and they are indeed the best mats you can get for your S2000. Here are some photos of the wear on the driver's side mat. I've daily driven my S2000 since I bought it so keep in mind this is nearly 4 years of wear. My stock mats are worse than this and I only used them for 6 months!
