Picked myself up an SL500 (R129) the other day, and it came with some original mats with it, but they're beige in colour.

Thought i'd put a black set on top/replace the ones that are there just to protect whats underneath.

I'm not after genuine, or want to spend a fortune, so something mid range should be fine.

Any recommendations?

Thanks in advance :)

There are lots on Amazon, some thicker quality than others (measured in knots per sq. inch I think)
 
Last year I got a set of fitted mats for my CLS55 from Carmatslondon on ebay. I wanted something to protect my Designo mats but not rubber. You can either use them as a replacement or overlay. They fit well and have been very durable. They didn't break the bank.

Thanks - I'll take a look :)
 
Mats to protect the mats...

Ye gods where does it end....

Thanks for being helpful :)

Seeing as they're not available to buy any more, i think i'd be best trying to preserve them, and wouldn't want them ruined being beige :eek:
 
Thanks @Landie1 - Don't look like they do mats for the SL :(

Thanks, but i'm not looking to get rid of mine - just buy a black set.

I noted that you’re not after an original set, but did you get a price for a set from the main dealer? I my experience they’re usually reasonable value, and sometimes cheaper from Germany.
 
I don't mind originals......i just would rather not pay through the nose for some mats....... ;)

I'll ask around at dealers - thanks

It is worth phoning around as stock which has been sat on the shelves can be had at a discount.

I managed to get a rare brand new AMG spoiler which was already painted for something like 25% or the cost this way. When I found out they had two I managed to get the same deal for another member. The dealer was delighted because they thought they were stuck with them!
 
If you find a set of mats with an AMG logo, then you can put an AMG badge on your boot lid.... 😁 ;)

Will go nicely with the AMG badges i have on each panel :rock:

I'll get on the phone next week - fingers crossed! 🤞
