Default Custom floor mats

Anyone have any experience with any custom made floor mats. I have Lloyd's now but I would really like to get a perfect match on the Kalahari interior and can't seem to find it anywhere. Will be searching shops locally but any input you have will be a great help. Thanks in advance!

Lloyd's are awesome - plush comfy feel - way way better than factory

100% agreed but I was shooting for a color match and they don't have it.

If you can't find an exact match, then I would go to a carpet shop, find a carpet you like, buy enough to make mats, take the carpet to an upholsterer (ask them how much you should buy first), and have them make mats to fit. Most shops like this can also embroider any graphics you want (or at least point you in the direction of a shop who can).

Interesting idea.

These are Kalahari - they lighten up over time - I would get hung up on color should be close enough and again they will change over time

I'd suggest you try www.cocomats.com. I have had them in three of my cars.....super heavy duty yet great looking. Wear like iron and have a custom look. I dont have anything to do with their business....just a very satisfied customer. They have many colors (see photos below) but I like the black with a color "thread" running through them. You could match or contrast a color to go with your interior (I did with my red interior C6 and also with my tan interior Avanti. Cost for two piece set is about $180.00.
