Floor Mats

Post by whtiger4229 »

So I bought some nice quality gray floor mats, unfortunately they dont cover the entire floor. How about some input/pics of what you have?

WeatherTech are good mats from what my coworker says.

I put truck mats in mine and they still dont cover. What I did was lay plastic under the mat.

Visit your local Costco. They have good mats for cheap. You can cut them to fit whatever you need.
You can kinda see what they look like in the first pic of this thread. They're super dirty there, mind you. :P

Costco??? :dontknow: We don't have that here in Portage, MI. I might give the Home Depot carpet a try.

I ended up making custom mats out of outdoor carpet (gray) from Home Depot. I have to say they look really good. I think I'm going to put some no slip under them though and at $20 for a big roll you cant beat that.

I have WeatherTech universal all weather mats, with ribbed vinyl underneath I got from work. Curved up along the edges to prevent runover.
Works very nicely for me.
