I know theres multiple threads on this, but nothing really fulfilled what i'm looking for. I'd like to get a set of 4 preferably, but all the other threads refer to cutting them yourself, which is not something i'd like to do. Does anyone know where i can buy them? Where has everyone else bought them? I'd like to avoid promotion from all the horror stories i hear, but I would like to get these mats. Thanks! :thumbsup:

I was actually looking at the ebay ones earlier from that exact seller, but has anyone bought from him before? Although it looks cheaper from mimo...

I bought mine off ebay and they suck! They are scratched and scuffed bad just from my white sole running shoes and a couple months of driving. I cannot remember what ebay seller I got mine from but they took forever to ship them to me.

I bought them off ebay a while back.... man they have gone up in price! Mine were like 100 for front and back. They were pretty nice though as someone mention they were all scuffed and scratched after a few months. But Im pretty sure there isnt much you can do to prevent that except only put them in for shows or drive with just socks :rofl:
Be careful though because the ones I bought off ebay came completely flat and I was stuck trying to bend them to the shape of the floor. Thought I dont know if you can buy them any different.

yeah, both places state they come flat but the first place has instructions that come with em to bend em. And i'm sure you can re-polish the mats when they get scuffed up... or i hope so. I want them because i go surfing and i get sand in my current mats and when i vaccuum them over and over, they fall apart. not to mention it takes like an hour to get all the sand out of them. I just thought it'd be easier with the diamond plate. Anyway, thanks for the input!
you have to make sure you get a good quality material.
if you have to bend it, that means its pretty thin material... Not good.
mine was very thick and strong. its almost impossible to bend them.

Where did you get yours MOMO? That probably means they're steel and not aluminum, and i think i'd prefer that, but i can barely find the aluminum ones let alone steel....
