Fabia SE mats?

donutmwd · 28-05-2007, 12:59

Hello

Just picked up the wifes SE and we are both delighted, over the moon, very happy you get the idea
She had a SAAB 95 and cant believe how much quicker the Fabia is, our other car is a V8 Beemer and I would not put down any money that it is quicker than the little pocket rocket, same kind of performance but 3 times the fuel economy

The question I have is can any one with a se confirm the colour of piping around the floor mats? ie grey or blue?

thanks

I would say they are grey. Unfortunately I've not seen the mats. But the standard car's had grey.

Glad you're enjoying owning the car, I've had mine a couple of weeks and it is indeed a very quick car!

As for the mats, there are no specific special edition mats, I've had to make do with normal VRS mats which have a grey / white piping which would match the normal colour seats of a VRS. Hope this helps.

Thanks very much could not remember when I viewed a customers car at the dealers a few weeks back if the had blue piping or if I had said it would have been better with blue piping. Was starting to think the dealer had swapped my mats - must learn not to be as suspicious1 Thanks for the replies

The mats have a grey edge on mine

They are just the normal mats - ie grey with the vRS logo on them. But they screw down which is a bonus

They do that on the Original vRS also.

Yes I know...I'm just poiting out it's a good feature. I think all their mats screw down, but when I had a mondeo it used to ride up under my pedals and was pretty dangerous

donutmwd · 28-05-2007, 14:14

Has anyone bothered to look into if anyone does the same mat with blue piping?
I think it would look really smart with the blue paint job and leather!

any thoughts ?

Snoopie · 28-05-2007, 17:05

I think it wouldn't be noticed after a while. Blue would dirt up really quick.

Tom_vRS · 28-05-2007, 19:29

Blue wouldn't dirt up any quicker than grey though!

My local carpet shop offered to bind the edges of my old ones for a fiver a mat, on the condition I removed the original binding.

I chose not to bother.

oilburninnut · 28-05-2007, 19:45

get seat surgeons to put blue leather edges on them same as the seats, could get the doorcards done at the same time.I will put pics on when i get mine done.

Blue would be half way there. A bit damp, they'd look black.

Can you not get 'Autostyle' mats any more? , they used to make them up with custom logos etc , and binding of your colour choice , I had a set made up for my Capri 280 Brooklands.

Mark raw · 28-05-2007, 22:45

I rather like the plastic rubber ones with a lip around edge. Stops and water or other stuff getting on to carpets like a saucer type edge.

Yep ,I have to agree

,just bought a set last week along with a set of front mudflaps and I've ordered the rubber boot mat as well to stop stuff sliding about .

The boot mat sounds a good idea...what did that cost you?
Were the cost of the front mudflaps expensive?
Did you order them from Aberdeen?

If you don't mind, pop past and let me see your boot mat thingy as I may get one - sounds like a good idea - especially for a boot that gets in the state yours does!

I'll do all your VAG-Com re-coding at the same time, if you like.

The boot mat is just over £20 +vat ,,,the mudflap set are probably cheaper than a badge for a mudflap for your yellow beastie !?

-£14.00+vat for a pair and take 10mins to fit

Re VAG-com re-coding ,,thanks mate I'll pop in by

Cheers Garry,

I'll have a look at your boot mat and make my mind up.
Mudflaps sound good though.

See you soon...
