I can't imagine them not being pre bent. If not I can just buy a sheet of aluminum and make my own LOL.

We'll just wait and see Jaws pics before we jump to conclusions.

Pictures on page one are pre-bent and were advertised as such. If its not the case than thats false advertising, and legal action can be undertaken.

It's not Greatblackshark's fault, but if they didn't send them bent, it's for one reason only.

Shipping is cheaper on a flat item, it's not as big of a package.

Still though, that's gay.

Shit, AND misleading. The picture shows them BENT.

Pics were taken and are at home.

When i get home later tonight ill post them.


Mats are not pre bent... you have to shape them yourself (bigger task then i thought).

They do fit nice and snug into the carpet... but the bending sux. Another thing that sux is that they are the exact lenght of the carpet..

The problem i had the first time i bent them was the clutch pedal sticking behind the aluminum floor mat. I do not have aftermarket pedals, and i have a sticky clutch that requires i completely floor the clutch pedal for a smooth shift.

With that in mind.. i was stuck on an intersection with the clutch disengaged until i floored it once again and moved the mat. This was a pain, since like i said the mats fit soooo snug, you can hardly move the thing.

Once i got to my moms house,... i straight the mat out a bit and now everything seems to be ok.

You will need to get some velcro stickies or something to keep the mats from movingup and down, as your bending wont be 100% correct.

They are extremely nice lookin though.

Slight issues.. but not enough for me to wine, b****, and moan.

pics have been taken, ill post them about 7pm pacific time.

Sorry guys if i would have known the mats were not pre-bent you would have been the first to know. You can look on MIMO they didnt say i just figured since the pictures are that way then the real deal would be that way.
