what floormats do you have???

What kind of floor mats are you guys using and where did you get them..how much dinero? I currently have some blue light specials I got for 5 bones and they do not fit well in my 91 birds floor pan. I want something that will fit right. Carpet too. I know about ACC and jc whitney and nextgen, summit, jegs, all that..i just wanna know what works for you guys. thanks

I bought this nice set off of ebay. They are black and have a screaming chicken on them. They are pretty heavy so that they will not move...not exactly heavy...more like sturdy. They are really nice...I payed $30 for them. They arent the usual ones listed on ebay...but I see them once in a while. I will try and get you some pics...if I can find them.

Right now I have just bought a new set of deluxe mats for my red GTA at WalMart.... I know, I know.... They're not an exact fit (especially on the RH side), but they are sturdy and look good in the car. Price.... $29.95 for a set of four mats.

My black notchback GTA has some "el cheapo" mats in it and they're all over the floorboard every time you drive the car. Really frustrating. The original GM mats are virtually useless anymore.

There is a seller advertising exact duplicate GM FBody mats on the Classifieds here, but I bought a set and they are not exactly like the ones my GTAs came with.

The LH mat is not cut out for the "dead pedal" spot, and the RH side mat is not molded for the "cat spot" either. The guy cut the part number off the package so you can not see what it is, but the mats are advertised for "Rear Wheel Drive" cars. The color is correct, but they are designed for cars with flat floorboards.

Oh well, they'll look good for shows I guess....

Not really complaining, but I thought I'd add this for those of you who might be considering buying a set of these mats off the Classifieds.

I bought mine from ACC with custom logo, IROC-Z in silver (on black). The fit is OEM-like. First rate for about $80.

ACC is Auto Custom Carpets if I remember correctly. Mine were purchased from Classic Industries www.classicindustries.com with the Z28 logo for around $60 for the set.
