ok, now that i have my car for daily use i really need these, cleaning the gutted white floor each day isnt fun anymore.. hahaha

bboyoracle · 04-10-2009, 09:05 PM

Don't mind the wait, but its been three weeks since our last update(a poor one at that). I'm surprised no one else besides tramp240, bejota180sx and myself aren't asking for updates......

LoanShark · 04-10-2009, 09:17 PM

Its psychological. If you dont worry about it, the wait doesnt seem as long. I didnt even notice they're due soon til today.

bboyoracle · 04-10-2009, 09:27 PM

True...but I'd at least like to have a new date when we should be expecting them. The first page of the group buy still says mid march, that obviously didn't happen.

tramp_drift240 · 04-11-2009, 09:05 AM

i agree with Loanshark.

bboy, youre stressing it too much. i asked a few times on the last page, primarily because i was drunk at the time and wondering. now i just kinda check up on the thread a couple times a week to see if any news has been posted up.

just relax brohan.

Ravspec · 04-13-2009, 02:48 PM

I will ask Dmax again, but I'm sure they would have posted if there was an update.

bboyoracle: Please pm us if you don't want to wait.

jrocslider · 04-21-2009, 09:17 PM

i'll wait for quality.

he showed you the samples and if thats what you want go buy some weapon r shit. quit bitching and let them do what they do. its just a fucken floormat.

JeremyR · 04-26-2009, 11:59 PM

updates??????

Om1kron · 04-27-2009, 01:36 AM

sent pm for refund arrangements.

bboyoracle · 04-27-2009, 12:51 PM

I'm heading the same direction....just hope they prove me wrong.

bejota180sx · 05-05-2009, 04:22 PM

hey, did you find another manuf. for the carpets? any other updates?

DMaxUSA · 05-06-2009, 12:50 PM

Updates:

Hey guys, sorry for the lack of udpates recently. The last month has been ridiculously hectic and confusing. My incessant pressuring of japan-side has just made D Max Japan upset, and they pretty much said "Do it yourself then!!" So, we were forced to redo the whole process all over again. The biggest problem was that we could not find a quality floor mat supplier that could do everything we wanted in-house. But the good news is we were able to find a supplier that was able to meet the majority of our demands, such as colors, floor mats, and "D Max" logo plate. We are still waiting for a sample of the mats to verify thickness/quality.

So cliff notes -
-Colors are confirmed for blue/black checker, red/black checker, grey/black checker, and black/black checker
-Heel pad will be dense fabric (a rubber/plastic heel pad seemed like it might crack after a couple years)
-Outside trim color will be black for all mats
-D Max logo will be an embroidered sewn-on patch. We attempted to use a metal plaque with the D Max logo printed on it, but it seemed like it would get scratched/faded easily

As for the D Max patch, we just received the samples in the mail yesterday.

We have decided to go with a darker blue logo, since it will not show dirt so easily. We have also asked them to round the corners so that when it is stitched into the mat it will not unravel easily.

Colors samples:

I know black/black checker isnt shown; I'm still waiting for a clear picture of that one.

driver11324 · 05-07-2009, 08:07 PM

This is good news! Is the thickness of the samples going to be the same as the actual carpet? or are those just the colors.

From what they tell me, the mats are supposed to be thicker than those color samples. We are still waiting on the actual samples.

Ravspec · 05-08-2009, 11:19 AM

At this point still $100 shipped to lower 48 States.

Thank you.

DMaxUSA · 06-10-2009, 12:18 PM

UPDATES!!!!

The samples are finally finished!!! However, they are still in Japan so once I get them in my hands, I can give a final assessment over the small details. I should hopefully get the first samples in a couple weeks or so. We ordered a black/black checker, but I guess their definition of that is dark grey/black checker. Let me know if you guys are ok with the light gray/black checker and dark gray/black checker. If everyone is cool with those variations, then I will not even bother making a true black/black checker.

S13 Red/Black Checker

S13 Light Gray/Black Checker

S14 Dark Gray/Black Checker

S14 Blue/Black Checker

Heel Pad Detail

Logo Detail

Ravspec · 06-10-2009, 12:46 PM

Thanks Bernard!

Brian · 06-10-2009, 12:48 PM

IIIXziuR · 06-10-2009, 01:53 PM
