floor mat recommendations
Hi all. My 951 doesnt have mats. I have the linen interior.
Has anyone ordered any from pelican or anyone else with good results. I dont mind paying $100 or so for the set new...but I dont want to find out I can get the same thing at pepboys after the fact when i get them.

I have linen interior too.
You can pick up mats from pepboys, autozone, etc.. in the $19 to $39 price range that do not look out of place. What you won't find at a pepboys is the porsche tequipment embroidered floormats. If you dont mind spending the $, I'd go for the porsche mats.

i bought factory floor mats not too long ago. Something like $116. It really gives the car a more modern look:

The Porsche mats are expensive, but look b1tchin'. They're worth the $$$ IMO. I've got 'em in the 944 and will probably get them for the 951.
My old ones (not Porsche) that came out of the car make great toys for the cat. He loves 'em, so you can "recycle".

I bought the factory mats too CJ but mine have a different Porsche font. It is thinner and looks more like the logo they have on their buildings in Germany.

My previous car with a linen interior came with black mats. It looked quite good and hid the dirt and stains that invariably will start to appear on linen mats.

I was thinking of going with black mats since the dash is black and the "beige" (whatever color it is) shows dirt so quickly.
I've ordered some Lloyds color samples and some from another place so hopefully i'll find a match. Do you have to go to a dealer to order Porsche mats? Their website is not all that helpful |
