Got my LLoyds Mats today! (pics)

Finally got my Lloyds mats today. It was fun customizing my own design. I went for boxster red to match my interior and picked "turbo S" in white stitching to match the exterior paint color. The mats are a little bit thicker and more plush than the factory mats, which is nice. The factory mats had leather borders while Lloyd's are fabric. Fit and finish is excellent. Color is not a 100% match but close enough, I'd say 96-97% there, and the difference is really not noticeable. I'm very happy with them.

The camera picked up the color difference much more than the naked eye so don't be alarmed by this.

Looks nice ... I was considering getting a set from Lloyd's since my OEM ones are starting to show considerable wear.

I hear ya. I was hoping the white stitching would be brighter / more intense white if you know what I mean (doesn't really show in the pics) so yeah, I can see them fading after some time. Guess just have to keep'em clean. I live in a dry sunny climate so I just have to deal with sand/dust/sun/UV.

Sam ~ I have a Boxster Red interior also... luv it! When I purchased a set of Lloyd's mats I was disappointed with the poor color match which appears to be the same with yours, at least the way they look in the pics. You'd think they could do a better job of it. FWIW I bought a second set of black mats so I could switch up the colors and clean the ones switched out.

I also went over the embroidery with a silver permanent marker to match the aluminum trim and then hit it with Scotch Guard.

With our interiors you've got to stay on top of it as the dirt shows up so fast but it 's worth it. Your interior looks awesome!
