Do you want MDX written on them? Do you need a color match? Are you concerned about saving $10? These are basic consumer questions.

I went with the weathertech floor liners (not the winter mats). They have better overall floor coverage....they might not hold as much liquid though as a true full winter mat.

I have the OEM in parchment. Fit perfectly, but they show dirt badly. Black would have been better.

Weathertech vs. OEM All Weather Mats

I had the Weathertech floor liners in my Pathfinder and GL450. The main problem I had with them was when I needed to clean them, it was necessary to vacuum them prior to removing them. If I did not vacuum them, all of the stones, dirt and salt would spill on to the carpet because they were so rigid. They did do a very good job of collecting all of the material.

I decided to go with the OEM Acura all weather mats this time. Flat Irons Acura in Boulder CO was selling the set for $109. I went to Mile Hi Acura in Aurora, CO and they matched the price. I am hoping that the Acura mats, being more flexible, will be easier to clean.

I ended up with the updated OEM in Parchment. They will show dirt more, but did not like the look of the black mats.

I got my 2007 mdx used and the oem mats were in pretty bad shape with stains and whatnot i ended up purchasing a front and rear set of oem mats which were used but in much better shape than what i had from ebay for about $ 25 yay !

Since i often go skiing i may look into the Weather Rubber ones or heck maybe place my old oem mats whenever i go skiing

You can walk into just about any Acura dealer and buy them off the shelf. No shipping, waiting, any problems a real person you can talk to ect. I work at a dealership and have never seen an all weather floor mat rip, grind down or break apart. I am a firm believer in them and try to get every customer I sell a car to try to buy them as in Indiana they are a car saver.
