E92 Car Mats

Hi Guys

I have just bought a new (new to me 2007 reg) E92 Space grey Coupe and I pick it up next week.

The only issue I have is that it has the cream leather interior with cream carpets. There are no mats in the car and I am thinking that I will go for Black carpets rather than the cream (I think it is going to drive me daft).

One question - has anyone bought any good aftermarket custom fit mats and if so where did you get them?

Cheers

I found the OEM carpet mats annoying - the front passenger footwell mat kept getting folded up and never sat on the floor properly.

I bought some for my E90 from ebay recently and they are really good quality and the fit is a good as OEM. Last time I ever buy original mats, thats for sure.
I just went for the cheapest I could see - they were like these -

I have the cream/beige mats but replaced them with mats from www.autostyle.co.uk. I still have them three years later though the driver's mat is beginning to look a bit sorry for itself.

They fit the E92 exactly. I know. They used my original mats as templates.

Thanks guys, I have went for a set off ebay so we will see how they look.

Is there anything else that I should know about a 320i auto been a couple of years since i traded in my 318d E90 so I am looking forward to getting back to a bit of comfort again (present car is a Rav4 great in the snow though!)

Cheers

Thanks, don't know just how much inprovement I would see as it is an Auto I have bought. To be honest it will be faster than my Rav anyway so I am not that bothered about the speed.
