Floor mat idea
Just throwing this out there, as you cant get a plush loyds mat with a logo yet - what I did is buy fender stingray emblems which must have a double back tape on it as I found out that it sticks really well to the carpet which surprised me, you can use a body shaver to cut down the mat. I suggest you keep pushing the emblem down to get an imprint over and over - helps you to know where you have to keep shaving - shaver did not work as well as I thought it would so takes some time to do this, but the amazing part is how well it stuck to the mat, thought I would have to glue - best option would be removing the carpet and getting down to backing and glue it proper but still works pretty nice, any thoughts would be great to hear, crap pictures off of phone.

Hmmm. Not to bad. I wonder if the fish might look better close to the inner or outer edges of the mat as opposed to centered. Also, it's a shame you don't have a smaller fish. That emblem looks a bit large to me but maybe left or right justifying it would look better. Just a thought or two. I got my Lloyds yesterday and they are so much nicer than the factory mats.

Having said that, you really need to place the mats in the car and take the pictures in there. It's really hard to envision them sitting in the car with the tunnel and doors encapsulating them. I'm thinking they may just look great about an inch or so from the tunnel edge of the mats. If I wasn't typing this on my iPad, I'd photoshop it.

I was thinking of crossed flag but a bit more money - I got stingrays off of ebay for about 32 dollars - good idea Hotrod - reading my mind
I could not find an embroided decent logo anywhere, I really wanted to do that and have them stitched in

Way to think outside the box - will be interesting to hear how well it holds up.
