WeatherTech mats would set this off well. Got a link to these trim sets? I might be interested in traditional CF and maybe just everything below the door trim only.

If they are the formed WeatherTech mats, do not bother. I bought them for my G, they look great at first, but over time the upper edges start curling inwards and look terrible.

more importantly; you need an interior detail stat! no mod looks good with a messy backdrop.

I have a '12 malbec black xS and yes I am WAY over due for a detail!

Yeah there are a couple of small pieces that are a hair too small, but they're in a place that is only noticeable if a door is open. Also I need to contact the company because the piece that goes over the phone charger port (and where I throw lose change) in front of the shifter only covers half of the area. I always have that part open so it's not a big deal to me, but if you keep it closed a lot then it would look a little tacky.

Got my bumper painted for the 3rd time. It still doesn't match perfectly but I think that's because it's a different material then the hood and fenders. It's tolerable now lol.

Had the tires mounted and balanced yesterday. Installed today @ around 530. I'm a total early bird! Up each day around the same time.

The trick to keeping your car with the freshly polished look is to do the entire car once then just little spot job touch-ups each time you wash her.
