Here's my pics below. Please excuse the slight dirt on them. This was when I first got them in and forgot to take pics before installing and using them.
When you're driving, can you look down and see the partially covered dead pedal? Or does the mat rise up high enough to where you can't tell?

I can see the edge of the mat on the DP if I lean back against my headrest. But I have to try. I am 6' and have the seat one click forward from all the way back and the backrest just ahead of halfway back I think (pretty upright).

I have had the RHD version of the 3D mates for a few months now. I love them, just replaced the 3D Badge with a 86 themed one


Wear well, clean up easy, don't move at all when fitted.

Are the Kagu and Aries the same mats? I noticed they both use "maxpider technology" to grip the carpet. If so, then auto anything has a good deal on them. It's $98...plus 10% off (coupon code ARIES10)...plus free shipping.

That comes to $88 for a full set shipped. eBay seems to be $130. Thoughts?:

If these are the same ones, I'll probably order a set from AA.

EDIT: Nevermind. I think the link I included above is for the rears only. I can't find the fronts anywhere on AA. Looks like eBay may be a better option after all.

I got the fronts (only) on Amazon for $86.29 last week. Shipped. No brainer...

Very easy, pair of pliers on the knob on the back of the mat and it pops off, then pull the badge off from the front. two almost invisible holes in the front.

Anyone successfully ordered this from Andy's? I put in my order over a month ago and they're still trying to sort out the part # with their suppliers...

I have weather tech mats.

In my opinion based on pics, the fitment seems to be about the same. The look and texture seems very different. If you want to save 10-20 on front mats, get the 3D. I believe I got my weather techs for 80 or 90 from a third party vendor.

If you need rear mats that match front, no brainier 3D.

Overall for most owners (who need just front mats) I think it's a wash and should decide based on appearance/texture preference.

I ordered these from my own supplier (I'm in parts at a dealership) and he said there's none in the nation until some time this month. After that, I found the same mats online on ebay. I ordered from two different sellers, and they both called me back saying their inventory is off and the mats are out of stock.

The ebay seller said they should have some come ~21st of this month, so we'll see.

hey! those aren't bad. Nice textures. I still prefer my weathertechs more since its a bit taller on the sides so it'll contain all the gunk making it easier to dump and clean.
But I do LOVE the coverage of the rear mats but no one ever sits in the back so its kinda pointless.

i got mine off eBay and i like it a lot better than weathertech, main reason is weather tech is too slippy when wet and the texture of this brand make noticeable different (not perfect). the only draw back is the cut out under the gas pedal, after a while you will see some sand start to collect where the cut out is, weather tech doesn't have this problem, but quick vacuum will take care it. i would still buy this one over weather tech if i have to choose again.

Sorry to bring up an old thread but has anyone had these for longer than 6 months? I've had weather tech in my past 2 cars (370z/335i) and got it for my mother's Nissan Juke. After about 6 months/year the weather tech really start to fold up and feel cheap.. I'm thinking it's the hot sun that makes them flex and start to form in really weird ways? I am very interested on getting these since I'm suppose to get my FRS sometime this week(if the buyer for my car does not back out).

So once again, do these flex? Because I really like the way they look, seems like a better quality over the weather tech.
