My '96 has a set of aftermarket embroidered floor mats and I'd dearly love to find a set of the OEM mats (light beige 64i ). There's a set on eBay for $120 that are just not worth that ask.
My aftermarket mats are in excellent condition and I'd be willing to trade them for your OEM mats in similar condition.

Or, are the OEM mats still available anywhere?
Thanks!
Just post a WTB/WTT here on the CF in the appropriate area and see what you're offered. You might clean yours and post snapshots of them also if a trade interests you.
I can tell you is why you aftermarket cause lot of us did it, the OEM wear out quickly they are very thin, and I and others buy Lloyds mats, they last they look better then original and last longer.
Stay what you have, or go to car car show, and look at C4 at there mats, if you find NCRS show, they have originals installed and check them out.
The first thing I bought when I bought my C4 and C6, was replaced those mats.
I bought Lloyds mats, put the originals in the box, they were in excellent condition, and I'll probably never use them, but they are red, and not as nice as the logo mats in my opinion.
I bought a set of the cheap new aftermarket logo mats on ebay. they looked fantastic, even came with the fancy GM holographic tag. But oh boy were they cheap quality that wore out quick where your feet (heel) sit.
I've never tried the Lloyds brand but everyone says they are excellent quality. I will go with these from now on.
I'm certain that they are not even close to the Lloyd's quality, but as I'm striving to have the car NCRS judged, having the original mats counts. Which is why I'm scouring around to see if I can come up with a set.

Shout out to J& J Auto Wrecking in Ohio. They had a set of OEM mats, accurately described and in very good condition. I paid more than I would have liked, but in the end, they were worth it. Used an interior cleaner plus my steamer and they came out extremely nice. No visible signs of wear. They did not have the grommet for the driver's side, but I happened to have a grommet kit for tarps that worked perfectly.
