Default Lloyds Mats

I just purchased an '06 coupe DSOM / BLACK interior A-6
Is Lloyds mats the way to go for floor and cargo mats?
Thanks,
Fred

The quality of the Lloyds mats are so far beyond the standards - much more plush

I have a DSOM with the cashmere interior. I replaced the cargo mat with a Loyds cashmere. The quality and fit are super. I got mine from the forum store.

I was also dubious about the big deal everyone makes about Lloyds Mats but ordered a pair on the strength of all that high praise and let me tell you, it was not hype: mine arrived yesterday and I installed them this AM and they are light years better than the junk that came with the car. Definitely worth the $99.95 I paid. Got mine on eBay. If anyone wants a link to the eBay vendor, let me know and I'll send it.

These are by far better than stock mats. I bought mine from Corvettes of Houston. Good price and service.

I think my Lloyds ebony double logo mats look great.

I bought the deck mat too.

Thanks,

Your interior is "Ebony" not "Black" Order the black Lloyds mats and there will be a contrast with your stock carpet. Below is a picture of Lloyd's black with red piping...I prefer the contrast

P.S. Excuse the interior it's apart, waiting for the seats to come back from the trim shop !!

I also have a DSOM with cashmere. I replaced the front mats with Lloyds, but with ebony instead of cashmere. The mats look great and don't show the dirt as badly as cashmere. And the charcoal color goes well with the rest of the interior. The Lloyds mats are far superior to the OEM ones.
