God the floor mats that came with my 3 are CHEAP, must have cost what 50 cents to make.
Went to Fred Meyer's out here in Washington State picked up a pair of clear blue tinted mats. They look nice with the red/blue theme.
i have the carpet ones with the embroided "mazda 3" lettering. they are a bit thin but i like them, i dont think they are cheap and the replacement from the stelaership are quite expensive
I have some cheap rubber mats in mine. Something spilled or something on my Mazda mats (carpet ones) and it stinks like hell, so I refused to put them back in until I find a different set.
The ones that came with the car were the black with white writing. Very Cheapo ! The ones I got from Fred Meyers were clear with a blueish tint. I'm working on Pictures.
I was going to buy some Mazda floormats, but if they are cheapo then forget it. My wife works at Fred Meyer so may look there, just want them to fit good.
