How often do you put your feet on that rail? I've had my car for 8 years, and I don't think I've ever had to clean that spot.

$400 for floor mats!!???!! Are you kidding me?!!??

I think its cheaper if you are on the group buy and the price includes shipping.

"groupbuy #7 price $340 plus shipping"

My bad...yeah I would buy a set at the low group buy price of $340...NOT!

I don't...but passengers do and that's the side on my car that looks worn.

I say if you can afford those floormats and you like them then go for it. BMW would not be around if everyone went around only purchasing Toyota Camry's.

Alternatively have you guys looked at other floor mat companies?

I bet you could replace the carpet for less than that.

Majestic Honda has black carpet for $440. I don't understand paying almost as much as the carpet price for floor mats.

Just a matter of personal taste and what people are willing to spend I guess. But those mats are definitely much nicer than anything I've seen thus far.
