Post Floor Mats - Carpet or Rubber

Does anyone have the factory rubber floor mats? How do they look?
Many people think a good rubber mat looks better that the carpet, not to mention that it would be easier to maintain.

If you haven't already, check with Snook here at this site for your parts. He may have them for less...

Get the rubber ones from Snook, they kick ass! And then take UWTL's advice and turn over your rear mats so they don't get dirty during the rainy season. Which around here is always.

I have the factory floor mats which came with the car. It really depends. I like the carpet look of the floor mats. It looks neat. But if it rains a lot, I'd recommend you to get the rubber mats. They hold up liquid pretty well. Only thing is that I don't like how the rubber mats squeek when moving my foot. I've experienced hearing these nasty sounds in my friends cars with rubber mats... that's why I've never owned them myself. Besides, it rarely rains in California! Yeah right.
