My Hall mats are very long, they have a narrow portion that curves all the way up against the firewall. They look fine. They tended to slide forward, so I installed grommets in them, and used wire ties to fasten them to the forward seat mounting brackets. They also have a couple of creases that have taken a set, I can't get them out, even tried heat. Don't know what colors they are available in. Mine are black.

I have also purchased PI Motorsport mats, thought I would give them a try next. They are not as long, they don't curve up along the firewall. They wouldn't be able to, because they are much stiffer. I'm hoping the stiffness will keep them looking better, longer. They are avaible in several styles regarding the choice of logos, and are available in colors too. Give Jerry a call.

I wish I could find black rubber mats w/white racing stripes like they use to make many moons ago.Something with Pantera on it would be even better.Pantera mats that the vendors sell look nice but I never had luck with carpeted mats because they slide too much and collect mud,although I don't plan on driving my pantera in the rain and getting muddy.
Interesting timing. I just had a mat made by a local shop Friday and it turned out perfectly. I used one of the plush mats as a template, transfered the shape onto cardboard, then custom tuned to my liking. Although my plush mats are in about perfect condition, I personally just don't like plush mats. I had the new one made out of the older style woven nylon material similar to carpets in 60's mustangs, quite flat. To avoid sliding, thin plastic sheet with 'knubs' can be glued to the underside. I'll probably post my plush mats for sale here soon.
My first set of floor mats for my Pantera were the carpeted ones with the "Isis' logo. Problem was that my left foot rested right on the bright white part of the mat and it wasn't long before it looked terrible.

My ultimate solution was to buy a set of coco mats from http://www.cocomats.com/. I got the black mats with blue dots to match my Grabber Blue car. They look great and period-correct, absorb dirt, and clean up like new. If memory serves I don't think they cost any more than the carpetet mats.
