Floor Mats Anybody?
 

My 2003 Boxster S that I am repairing (I bought it from an auction) didn't come with Floor mats - probably stolen at Copart!

My question is, does anyone have any recommendations for new ones? Should I get them at the dealer or is there some other custom solution that you guys could recommend?

My new (to me) 981 had hideous Porsche rubber mats and I bought a set of Cocomats (not really cheap BTW) but the quality is great and they look awesome as they match the red interior.

I love my Cocomats!

If you look at the carpet close to the seat there should be a 3" diameter velcro disc, that helps keep the OE Porsche mats from moving. That's one of the reasons I prefer OE Mats.

a couple small pieces of strategically placed 'loop' portion of self adhesive velcro strips let you easily to upgrade to much plusher Lloyds mats. Having a tendency to always add overkill, I'll also dab a few drops of superglue before placing on back of the Lloyd mats for good measure. None have ever come loose even w/ track use (shhhh... I forgot to remove after tech inspection even though I promised ;)

Of course newer cars of all makes have the legally inspired [read: nanny state mandated] j-hook style mats which barely even get within spitting distance of the pedals these days :rolleyes:

Good luck :)

i personally prefer the original.
they are not that much expensive than the alternatives.

I agree with Coco Mats!
Don't have them for my P car, but bought them for my Audi; they are awesome. If I didn't have original P car mats, I would definitely go with Cocomats!

Coco Mats. Great looking, tough as nails, don't show dirt, and have been equipping Porsches since the 356. Go to any gathering of classic Porsches and look inside - you'll see a ton of them. Have them in both Porsches.

I also have Coco mats in mine and love them . As already stated they have been around forever and wear like iron . Lots of patterns/colors available .

What color do you need?

Suncoast has OEM mats, great price.

I personally don't like Lloyds, not as good as they advertise for "OEM" fit.

Also, sorry Pelican, just giving options.:cheers:

Red. Got any red? ;)

Starter, I will take a pic of my red w/black Cocomats :-)

I have a black OEM set from my 04 Boxster. Drivers side shows some wear. You can have them cheap if you want them.

I have tan, blue, grey and black but no red. Red is rare.

Thanks for checking!

Total newb move to jump on someone else’s thread, but if those tans are close to my sweet Savannah Beige interior, I might like a set.

With all due respect, Itsnot has been around a while... sells parts heavily discounted and, I believe, his post wasn't an intrusion so much as an offer to help to, you know, assist our members.

Maybe when you've a few more posts under your belt... and in whichever manner serves some of our members... you'll establish some leeway. We're all fairly much cool.

Yes, it's after 430... 6... in the morning. I've earned it. After joining the forum I reserved my smartass comments until I knew who were the primary contributors on these pages.

In any event, welcome to the forum! :cheers:

Starter986 I was referring to myself making the newb move, not itsnotanova

aaahhh.... this is refreshing... a guy who doesn't take himself too seriously!


well-done, Ladd. Well-Done. (see what I did there? haha):cheers:

HAHA Awesome. :cheers:

Speaking of jumping on threads, Starter I have some well worn red ones. You can have them if you want them.

:p
.........

Mr. Ladd, please accept my apology. I should have paid more attention to your use of the word "but". :o

Tommy... well worn... might I bother you to send a photo, PMd? You could include a zip code so I could estimate the shipping. Thank you. :cheers:

Yeah reminds me of when you 1st joined, I assumed you were a millennial.

[QUOTE=BYprodriver;607747] LOL! Yes... as a newbie I erred. :( I've learned from the best.

Boomer. ;)

Have a great day! :cheers:

No problem, my friend!

I'm new here, but am a denizen of numerous forums dating back to the late nineties. Rest assured, I'll do my best to be respectful here.

Starter, You may want to give your Boxter a set of Cocomats for Xmas :-)

Thank you. I've looked at the Cocomats. They are solid. The Lloyd mats... those I really like. The Cocos would be overkill for my ride. IMHO.

Now... your mats look great, especially married next to that beautiful red carpet. Stunning. :cheers:

Likewise the forums. Restored an 86 E30 ES relying on those forums.

I like to believe we're all respectful. A nicely tempered group of gentlemen.

See ya around!

I'm racing all weekend and have jury duty on Monday. Text me at 512-925-9171 in a few days.

Will do, thanks!

Since I use mine as a daily driver in the Carolina's ( sand everywhere), I ordered a set of the weather tech's. Fit is outstanding, just not OEM or aftermarket stylish. But for utility they are great. Power wash them when I do a full detail and no wear on the carpet.

$175 for 2 floor mats.......that's "crazy expensive" if you ask me!....Got their samples and they look nice but I'm having trouble justifying that amount.

Cocomats! The Brooks Brothers of floormats- never out of style. Look good in every car I've fitted with them, from Lotus Elan 1600 and Plus 2S, BMW 2002 and 750il, three 911's, three 986's, two Miatas, three Mercedes C240.
My silver C240 was stolen, and when recovered the next day, the only things missing were the Cocomats. Even crooks have taste.
What color is your Box?

Plus they weigh 5 lbs a side!
