Default JDM floor mats.

After having no luck in finding any decent red mats, I have finally gone ahead and ordered some OEM JDM mats in red.

These look to be a far superior mat than the UK ones as well as covering the cross member in front of the seat and of course are available in red to match the carpets. Looking at the pics the fit is superb and although they dont cover the hump under the drivers left leg, I think it is preferable to the poor fit of the Muz mats in this area.

I ordered them through Barry at VTEC direct who will give a 5% discount, and now have a 14-18 day wait for delivery.

Looking forward to removing the OEM grey mats!

See below for other colours.

they are expensive. For that price I hope some half naked Fijian girls come round and fit them for you.

I'm not sold on the Muz mats myself, and I love to know why car mats are so bloody pricey these days

Will be interesting to see what you think of the quality and fitment (should be perfect).

You're right, they are expensive and I thought about it long and hard before I committed to them.

I looked at the Muz mats many times and after seeing pics of the fitment and the red being too different to the carpet they became a no no. I considered the Muz mats as being expensive, but in the end I would rather pay the extra and be totally happy with them.

I know what you mean about the red of the Muz mats, and the fitment not being quite right. If these last twice the time the Muz mats do your quids in

barnabylee, as you know I have the red JDM mats. You will not be disappointed with the quality or fit

FYI I paid a little bit more for them than you're getting them from Barry.

Chris.

If I'd paid that much for mats I wouldn't want to leave them in the car in case they got dirty.

They are just like the UK ones but with an extra and seperate section to go over the cross member

Mikey K, I beg to differ with your comment above and I am sure ChrisrIII will agree these are far far superior to the standard UK mats, although no piece of carpet is worth
