Car Mats. Wow!

[syelad]

Hello All,

Just picked up my new facelifted Leon FR today from Irfan. Massive thanks to M1 for all thier help.

Quick question, does anyone know if the genuine mats are the same as from the pre face lifted Leons?

Cheers!

You mean Irfan didn't sort you out with some.......tut tut.

He didn't with my sisters MK5 Ibiza then begrudged 10% off RRP!

I never even thought to ask.

I found some FR mats on cyberspares. Not genuine but they look okay....

Go for the originals - you'll save money in the long run as they'll last a lot longer! Mine have been in for 40K miles now and still in good condition. In my old car I struggled to make cheap ones last more than a couple of months!

I got a set from a place on Ebay.. Black mats with a red outline and an FR badge on them!

They're still in very good condition after 12k miles!

They still look after-market though!

However, I asked them not to put the metal bit in the middle and they put a harder wearing piece of material there instead with a red border.

just make sure you get the right ones for your car.
some cars have the mounting points some dont.

I'd leave it there, the material still wears through. I fitted some chequered plate to my mats over 18 months ago and still is as good as new. I worn through that material in less than 4 months.

I thought the metal looked a bit tacky myself.. Have had the car 11 months and done 12k miles and the mats are still in good condition.

I must have a heavy right foot
