Why are these flormats so expensive? ( DMAX )

[1337]

if you cant afford it, don't cry about it. maybe they know people with shitty cars won't be able to afford their product. sounds like smart marketing.

[azsr20det]

if you go to xenondepots website,
they make custom vehicle specific floor mats for just about any car.
in just about any color
with embroidery if you want

its the lyoid ultimats or something like that.
ive been eyeballing them for a long time for my s13, and they got some REAL sexy red ones for my honda...

[4DOOR_LIFE]

if i had Dmax floor mats i would have a sign on my window telling passengers to take their shoes off when they enter. lol.

I wouldn't mind getting them, although i never plan to fork out that kind of cash for something so useless.

stock floormats in good shape FTW.

dmax are knock off's in a nutshell of the vertex floormats and those are super fucking expensive almost 400 dollars.

They're all knockoffs of KARO.

KARO


EDIT: And as referenced above, I would argue that Dmax is not "baller", but I would also in turn argue that people should buy parts because they like the part, not because they want to be "baller".

This. No one seems to remember that Vertex has the same exact design pretty much. And i'm pretty sure i read somewhere that the DMax heel pad wears out fast considering it is also woven cloth or w.e, but rubber/pleather

[illvialuver]

yes the vertex white and black and grey ones are dope, but stupid expensive, like more rediculous thatn the people that buy designer bags for money, but can not afford to put money in them after buying them

lol @ D-max considered "baller"

Everything in Japan is a knock off of something someone else made in Japan. Every company sells dmax corners, tails, blinkers. all the same shit. vertex lights, yashio factory lights, uras lights all the same shit. All bought offshore and overpriced coming to the us because we know no better.

What do you guys think about this?

The way I see it, it's like buying Porche running shoes for $600+. It's just a way to say "I'm more baller then you". I would buy them if my car were a show car but I'm not sure that I would buy them on a daily. Then again, you could buy them used for next to nothing compared to the MSRP.

[95KA-Turbo]

Does anyone even carry the D-Max floor mats anymore? I need a set of the light grey/black front mats for my car.

[Csomme]

Why is this even a topic? This doesn't deserve it's own thread.

[Levan. B]

i love mine, they fit good and look awesome.


Those KARO's look way better though. Rubber insert!

[Kaizen.]

Walmart has 15 dollar Rubbermaid mats.

that checkered design looks gay.

i don't care who makes it.

this thread fails at life


you guys fail at life


you should all be skinned alive for having a discussion about shitty floormats


there are a ZILLION aftermarket companies that make high quality floormats. why this thread even exists, is beyond me. and yes, they should still be available through most dealerships.

[tricky_ab]

Not trying to sound cheap, but then questioning the purchase of said mats? (At $170?)

Never change Zilvia....

[Brian]

Loved my DMAX mats. SO bitchin.


I have a used set of the red/black WEAPON R mats if somebody wants them. Had them in my J30

[ZX88]

I bought some weapon R mats. they are good for 30 bucks. no offense DMAX is raping people on those mats.

[kalypso123]

if the fiber starts to rip off with a little bit of wear then its cheap quality, DMAX might last a lot longer then a walmart brand mat.

[newslidz]

I LOVE WHEN PEOPLE BY BALLER MATS. because then they dont have the money to buy decent parts to keep there cars running but maby I should get some since I am so baller and the shit under my hood is legit and some even call it baller

[MikeisNissan]

All I can say is my mom liked them. Even told my dad to get some for his Chrysler.

hahahah ik right floor mats

[RichieSR20]

Bare metal...

[C-unit]

This thread is so lame...

fuck floor mat, put pig skin in your car.

[Wake]

This thread sucks.

Vertex mats are baller ONLY because they are actually made by KAROism FOR Vertex. Same with supermade, INGS+1 and a couple others.
As far as I know D-max and weapon R are made by the same factory in china, just like all of D-max's lights that you can also buy on ebay.
Bottom line is you people are literally arguing over paying for a label that a company stuck on after the fact.

And these 2 quotes sum it up. fucking idiots with their "baller" shit. I hate the fact that people will pay for AND argue about something when they dont even know where the original design came from.
