the black / white logo looks great and is very appropriate for your car.

to be accurate they are black w/silver to REALLY match the car....waited for the custom color and it was worth it...

LgbAlfa and Soccersimon, both of you have really nice cars I have admired them on the boards for a while.


From the pictures it is a little hard to tell, but it looks like they fit better in the series four Alfa of Lgb than they do in mine. Are the floors of the series 4 and series 2 different?

thanks for the compliment.

not sure about the floor plans of the different series.

the floor mats fit perfect in my car.

not too short.

Greetings: I also bought a set of carpets from ricambi-automobilia on eBay. These are fitted into my '67 Duetto, in place of the main rubber mats. I wanted to stay fairly correct, so everything else is rubber mat, but I really did not want to spend the $$$ on center rubber mats and simply cover them up with floor mats, which are mandatory IMHO. The fitment is good - high enough up to allow installation of snaps to secure to the original location for three of the four points The driver's side does not encircle the foot-operated washer pump, so I had to add a snap below the pump. I did the black mat with red trim and logo to go with my red upholstery. Photo below of current state, but mat installed. Note floor mounted pedals. The slots were properly located, but I may upgrade them with rubber surrounds. The logo is a embedded appliqué, which looks like it will wear well. Full disclosure: ricambi-automobilia did not have my particular combination in stock, and it took them several months to supply me.

not nearly enough, just often enough to get it warmed up and fluids circulating. I am more preserving it than driving/enjoying it, but it is literally flawless..

I am kinda stuck with two 'garage queens', and if you saw either one - you would understand why - the Alfa and the Countach are just gems!

I did pick up this '72 Pantera recently and I may or may not get into it, but I can tell you this, if I can afford to keep it, I am going to just make it a 'driver' and leave the cosmetics alone!

Lambo is an '86 = rare quattrovalve downdraft euro carbed car - underwent an amazing restoration more than 3 years ago now, still looks incredible...this car won first place in it's category last year at Concorso, I am not taking it back this year! Too much anxiety and worry.

I went the IAP route for the wifes 85 but I decided to try something different and less expensive on the 83 I'm working on for me. Since the carpet is brown in mine I wanted a woven mat and during our trip to Ikea a couple of weeks ago I picked up two woven mats with non skid sprayed on the back for 4.99 each. I then used the IAP mats as patterns to cut the mats, bought patches on Ebay for 9.00 including shipping then had the upholstery guy stitch the patches and trim them in matching vinyl. His bill was 40.00 for a grand total of 59.00 for a one off set of mats.
