On a side note, does anyone know if this is covered under warranty?

You could try this DIY.

And I doubt it's a warranty item.

Post some pics. I have a generic weather mat picked up from Walmart or somewhere, I forget. Just make sure you test the mat to make sure it doesn't slide around, you don't want it getting under your pedals.

It would be nice if there was a fix for this for those of us who autocross as all floormats have to be removed from the car while at the sight.

There are aftermarket choices, I have a set from Spoonz Auto (black with red binding) that I got on eBay. They are much more rugged than stock and hold up well. Also cut same as stock and come with the locking fittings. They were $99 and free shipping. Scion also makes an all-weather mat set for the front now. They are very nice, soft and rubbery but rugged. I like them better than the plastic Weathertech and they cost a lot less. I think mine were about $60.

I'm in the process of buying a used FR-S with ~10k miles on it, sight unseen. I would imagine the carpet in it is in great shape, but I can't say for sure. I will sell it to you if you're interested. Floor mats too, if'n ya want 'em.

buy yourself the all season rubber mat. I have the one with FRS logo and it looks great, no wear, just hose it down when it's dirty.
