Default Floor mats and carpets

Hi guys I'm thinking of replaceing my floor mats and carpet. Unfortuneately most of the manufacturers do not realize that the floor is different on the verts. Anybody done this and have any recommendations for a place to go?

the bolsters or whatever they are called are much wider on a vert. So a floor mat in a vert is quite a bit narrower than a coupe. There are some differences in the actual carpet in the back seat area as well...

I found a carpet for a vert that was in good condition on ebay the other day while looking around. You might want to check there.

We've got the SLP floor mats for the front. They not only look good, but they fit great.

I found some for the vert but they have SS on them do you have those or ones with SLP on them? If they say SLP where did you get them from?

I have a 2002 Firehawk Convertible with the SLP Firehawk floormats. I purchased an extra set from a guy on another site and didn't realize at the time that there is a difference between the coupe and vert front floor mats. The difference is ever so slight but there is a difference the vert set is a little wider were the steps down is on the passenger floorboard. Once installed I don't think anyone would no the difference. Just my 2 cents. Hope this helps alittle.

There is the hump behind the rear seat that is not there on the coupe. That would be a very visible issue to get a different carpet to fit.
