New floor mats

Sometimes it's the little things that make me happy.

I've been working with my carpet manufacturer to get some floor mats made for my truck, because their original shape was kind of out in left field. Last night my mats came in and I finally got to see them in the truck. I still need to straighten out a couple things, because they made the mirror image of what I need, but they're close enough to actually fit nicely in the truck.




Of course now my stock carpet looks bad with the new mats, so I guess I should plan on putting new carpet in soon. Of course, then the door panels and seat cover will look bad... this is going to wind up being an expensive set of floor mats.

Re: New floor mats

I'm not much into the rubber mat thing. I wanted something a little more modern. Eventually I'll have all new carpet anyway, so these were a good chance to see if I like the dark color or if I want to go with something lighter.

Re: New floor mats

Looks good and I know exactly what you mean LOL.

I put a dash cover over the stock dash, the molded plastic ones and dyed it as close as possible to stock. Now the door panels and seat look bad, So next up I am gonna dye them. it needs carpet for sure, but if I get carpet I want carpet lower door pieces and kick panel pieces, and add the alum. sill plates LOL.

SO yea I know what ya mean.
