Default Need advice!!

Ok, so now I'm the proud owner of this 2005 beautiful Vette, I'll post a picture just as soon as I have time to figure out how to do it.
I found these floor mats on CorvetteStoreonline.com. They are Lloyd Luxe top of the line with Logo. By the time I added the floor and cargo matts to my cart, the total was approx $411.00 and the shipping is extra !! This is not going to be my everyday car. Should I bite the bullet and pay this much or be satisfied with the lesser quality??
Thanks so much

I went with the Lloyds Ultimat floor mats. They are thick and great quality. I had the Luxe before but they are almost too deep.

Try some forum vendors...RPI, Southern Car Parts, West Coast Corvettes, etc...the price may be about the same but you are supporting a vendor that supports us.

I've owned both the Lloyd Ultimat and Luxe Mats in my corvettes, and they are both great products. Either one is far superior to the factory mats. I will be purchasing a set of Luxe Mats for my newest addition in the near future. If you plan on long term ownership I would go Luxe Mats all the way. Also, I am trying to sell a set of mats that I have with the custom GrandSport logo and now that I own a 427, I wish I had gone with just a C6 logo so I could swap them over to the new car. Don't go too personalized if you think there might be another C6 in your future. Also, might want to shop around, I always buy mine from autoanything.com. They offer 20% off regularly. Right now they have 18% off.

Regardless of which way you go, you can't go wrong with Lloyds matts, they are well worth the money IMO. I purchased the ultamat back in 2006, my Corvette now has almost 100k miles on it and the mats still look almost as good as the day they were bought

I usually don't buy the best or the worst, always in the middle.

Bought the middle Lloyds for my C5 and thought they were too plush.

Bought the inexpensive ones for my C6 and I'm perfectly happy.

If your not in a hurry, keep an eye out here on the classifieds. You can get a used set, that looks almost new, for a huge savings.
