M6 mat update...

So I got the M6 embroidered mats today. See pic of the 4 mats you get.

1. In comparing the plain black mats you get with the M6, the quality of the new ones is less. The underside of the new mats have a thin foam (grey) covering whereas the original plain mats have a sort of nylon material (black). The overall thickness is similar. Once in the car there is no difference with the overall feel...

2. Here's the catch that I discovered after installing. The fit was not perfect. It doesn't fill out the mat space and does not tuck neatly around the foot pedal and foot rest. I was curious so I inspected some of the packaging and found a part # with a label that said E64 M6 convertible. I then punched the part # into shopbmw and sure enough, UnitedBMWOnline is selling these E63/64 mats online for the F12/13 cars. Not cool.

So word to the wise...these mats are for the old E63/64 body:

I'm going to call them tomorrow and see what's up...
