new lloyds custom mats
i recently bought a set of these from autoanything.com on sale and they were 100.00 shipped. i was promised that they were oem fitment and better than oem quality/thickness.
man, i can't believe the cheap wallmart quality of these and they cut them up all mis-shaped trying to make them cover more area i guess. they came embroidered with my org name on them which looks nice, but overall i was not happy with how thin they were and the ant-slip backing is, eh.
these are the cheapest set they carry and usually sell for 141.00!!! i complained about the weight and cut not being as promised and they said no problem and i got a full refund!! woot!! for free i'll rock them all day!! here they are

i like them but the weight and thickness is going to be their downfall. i think they'll holdup a little longer than walmart mats. they look nice but i'm afraid to use them.

lol, umm car is 19+ years old. that's stains from my feet and the previous 4 owners. you think i haven't tried to get the carpet clean? it's faded, 19 winters and spills, and the camera makes the color look alot darker then it is in person. you obviously don't know me, tell him brad ( insert picture here ) o, and some of that drivers side stain is oil

Although by the way you describe it, they truly DO add character haha.

so, went out and bought some turtlewax carpet cleaner with oxi-clean and scrubbed the crap outta the mats+ carpets. gotta say they look better, but still a little dark around the edges. smells nice, but, it always smells nice in max rides car. pics pics later with the new lloyds mats!!!

I found the Purple Power and Orange concentrate cleans carpet too like new appearance but you need a wet/dry vacuum too suck all the yucky crap out your carpet and perhaps taking it up or the car and washing it thoruughly with a water hose wuld be the best, wet vac it athen let it dry in the sun on a fence, shep roof, or clothes line!

kinda hard with the temps topping 38 degrees today. i think they came up alot better than i was expecting, wet/dry vac and/or extractor is a pita and i thought the scrubbing with the brush did a better job then the last time i used a machine. i'm going to vacuum as the can recommends and see if they look even a little better.

nope, you gotta realize the carpets are 19 years old and i've cleaned them at least 10-11 times. i thought about getting a couple of small brushes to get under the seats better and in the corners. i'll head out later to see what they look like and decide what to do next.
