Interest in custom floormats

Hey guys. My bro just got a new set of custom floormats from the guys over at DelSol Tuning and wow, they are awesome. Perfect fit, fully color customizable (he got black w/ red lettering) and a fairly decent price. Im talking to these guys about getting these made for our cars and figured that if I had proof that there is a market for them, we could get them made. I've already offered them my mats as a template, I just want to get some feedback that shows we are interested if they make them. Here's the link to their site: dSt Honda and Acura Floor Mats - The Original "Better than New" Alternative

BTW, I am in no way affilated with these guys, I just want to get these made for all of us (and I really want some myself lol)

some pictures of their work:

I'll talk to them about a group buy because price seems to be the main turn-off ive seen so far

As a mod here I just want to clarify our forum rules:
1) No groupbuys without sponsorship
2) No advertising only threads, even if the user has no affiliation with the company
3) No direct linking to offsite groupbuy threads.

This thread is okay for now, but if it starts violating these rules I will have to delete it.

No i dont think they will fit. The point of this thread is to show the company that there is a market for 5th gen floor mats so hopefully they will make them for us

ok guys here's what the guy responded with:
Quote:
Hi ******,

Thanks for dropping me an email. We're actually just about ready to
get
rolling on the 97-01 templates. There was a couple of other templates
we
were trying to finish up first - but if you have templates now that
you're
willing to let us borrow - I would LOVE get rolling on them right away.

We usually bother the Honda-Tech community when we're ready to do a
template:
One example 92-96 Prelude:
Honda-Tech.com: Honda Prelude: 92-96 Prelude Logo Needed - For New Floor Mats


Incidentally We've actually already got the embroidery files completed
and
only need the templates in order to begin production. Our goofy rep at
the
factory accidentally made a 92-96 set with the 97-01 logos:
http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y57...t/85645d2a.jpg
(big oops there - but gives you an idea what they would look like for
you
guys)

Typically what we do is this:
If you'll send us your templates - we'll take measurements and get them
setup to copy at the factory. Then we'll ship them back to you.

The first set we make will be made to your color / embroidery
preferences
and set first to us for pictures. After pics - if you like what you
see,
it's available to you at half price and with free shipping (to pay you
back
for your initial shipping).

Let me know if that will work for you. I'd love to get rolling on them
right
away.

im gonna get my mats sent to him asap so we can get this going

Well if that isn't COMPLETELY off topic..........



Anyway, I would love a set of the mats for my 5th gen, plz keep us posted on the progress and/or availability of the mats! I'm sure many of us will offer our business to them as soon as they go on the market
