Red floor mats
New guy here. I just purchased my first BMW, a 2014 Z4. So far, I love everything about it. My problem is (if you'd call it that) is the interior is black, black, black, with some wood trim. I'd love a little red. I have a few ideas. One thing I'd like to do is install red floor mats. I'm talking direct copies of the factory, carpeted mats, but red instead of black. I search and find all kinds of aftermarket, red mats. But, most look like cheap, Chinese junk. Or, they are Weatherguard, or something like that which is not like the OEM mats. Any ideas?

Custom job?
My 2007 fn2 Civic Type R had red carpet and mats from factory... nice when its clean and new. but horrible to keep looking nice... and once they get used a bit they dont look the best... IMO black carpet and mats are better. I think dealer offers different floormats aswell... rubber and carpet.. and with carpet there was an option for a set with writing on it. When i ordered a new set from dealer i could get simple black ones or black ones with sdrive35i written on them. For me that writing looked too boyracerish. 2 of my previous cars had Type R logos and wrtiting on their mats, so i knew these things wouldnt stay nice and fresh for long.For Type-r hothatch that kind of mats do fit and make it look more interesting. But Z4 interior is more elegant in its design to fit that kind of stuff to it IMO... So i didnt and ordered simple black floor mats. They dont cost much so no need to got aftermarket because OEM is expensive or something like that. They were considerably cheaper than FN2 Red Type R mats were from Honda dealer.

I don't want to make it look cheap, or "raceboyish." Just hate all black everything. Plus, I live out in the country. My driveway is gravel, with oak trees everywhere. That almost white gravel, and the reddish-brown leaves show up like crazy on those black mats.
