Hi everyone just thought I would put in a quick post. Well after about 10 weeks my new flooring turned up from ALLCARCARPETS from Victoria. just finished putting it in and apart for a few dramas putting the seat back in it looks schmicko. Couple of before and after pics.
All the Best, Gazza

Looks the part alright. I'm about to order the same so comparing with several outlets. Any views on ALLCARCARPETS vs OBSOLETE RUBBER MATS appreciated - I can't get to the outlets to view the actual products. The cost differs but that isn't always the deciding factor. Both look good in the photos but are they similar compositions & fit? Not sure also about the underlay. Any advice? Dave.

Hey DJ I don't know about obsolete rubber mats but these are quality I only had to punch a couple of holes for the front seat and seat belts and they were fitted. The worst thing is the time frame 10/12 weeks from placing the order. Then I suppose it comes down to cost front and rear $800+ 30 postage from memory. Anyway I am wrapped. The underlay I just used the old underlay that was in the car as it was A OK.

Obsolete costs $300 each and quote 6 weeks delivery. As I said I think they all come from Obsolete. I used Obsolete on all my cars and they were very good.

Thanks Gaz. Sounds like the same quality product from the same place, as Ken suggested. I'll call ALLCARCARPETS on Monday. OBSOLETE quote this morning totalled $1110 for front, rear, boot, 4 mud flaps & P&P. Lead time would be a little more than normal just now but that's not an issue for me at the moment. Dave.

If you are getting all of that for $1100 that's a good deal so I would not disregard them. I only went with all car as I found there add on ebay they do the boot mat as well for all three would be $1200 and that's without flaps.

Gaz,
It does sound good when you put it that way. I see other discussions all include the same positive comments that you & Ken make on the quality too.
The breakdown from OBSOLETE today -
Front $280
Back $280
Boot $300
Mud flaps $100/pr (front or back)
P&P $50.
Deposit $100 & COD for the balance when shipped.
Lead time was expected to be more than 6-8 weeks this time.
I think he said the mud flaps extend the timeframe until orders are sufficient for a run.
Thanks, Dave.
