here's how impulsive i am - you guys are gonna love this. so i had been looking to replace my ratty floor mats for a while, finally settled on some. received my new floor mats a couple weeks ago, which i posted a picture of, however i was not thrilled with them. they are from bavauto and are much thicker than OEM and are black with silver piping around the edge. truth be told, i just didn't love the look after i received them. but i paid $125 for them and figured, eh, with time i'll grow to like them.
well fast forward to this morning where i come to find Db4popov's post with the BMW puddle lights, and happen to notice his ///M floor mats in the video. i had seen those style before for the M3, but they always had the complete "///M3" instead of just the "///M" logo. so then i hop over to ebay and see these bad boys:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/99-05-BMW-E4...17526913492874
$49.99 w/ free shipping?! hell freakin' yes please! so immediately i checked bavauto's return policy and i'm still within the window (30 days after receipt), called 'em up, and got the return authorization lol. i'll end up saving $60 or so after return shipping, and i feel like OEM mats will look pretty sweet, matching the wheel and shifter etc..
end blahg.
edit: and actually it looks like since i purchased just a few mins ago, that ebay listing has now gone down an additional 5% to $47.49. lol
