M3 Floor Mats NLA?

[Cubieman]

Nice, you got the correct colors on new mats, jealous.

Not sure if you’re saying those are original stripe color, if so those are not the original purple middle stripe.

If you’re not talking about that, sorry please excuse my not understanding post.

Hmmm I may be wrong then. To me they looked like the original stripes.

Look but don't touch...
Mine recently received FCP mats also have some stiching issues on one mat. Also, I checked out some mats I ordered Nov. of 2019 from ECS I have stashed away and they have the newer style non-purle center stripe, so this change is at least that old.

Here are pictures of 2/3 of my mat sets. Looks like they have the original stripe.
One set is from Fernan BMW that I got on eBay.
another is old stock from BMW of Manhattan
and most recent is a set from Bimmerworld.
Maybe the purple stripe was a glitch on the coupe mats? I would have seen them on my Bimmerworld convertible set as those are the most recent ones.

my CC got charged by FCP today, so I’m guessing they’re getting shipped?

Ya it happens, still bothered but oh well. If the new mats are gonna look like they do with blue middle stripes and wayward strands of thread, I'll stick with my originals.

I passed on a set on ebay for $99 3 days ago to buy from FCP for $106 as I am a patron, only to get an email from you today cancelling the order.
Not happy.

I would be too.
But to be fair this is a BMW fulfillment issue from their network stock. Have had that happen to me even ordering direct thru BMW wholesale account over the years.

Ordered on March 2nd from FCP, it took them a week to ship them, I received them this past Friday.

[tnord]

when did you guys order from FCP? I haven’t received a cancellation yet.

[SG/IRM3]

Got the same message from FCP.

So much for that...

My name is Ramon from FCP EURO, I am reaching out to you because my Fulfilment team has notified me that the Carpeted Floor Mat Set that was ordered cannot be sourced as it is currently on backorder with no ETA. I have removed the item from the order and refunded the cost of the item back to the original payment method. Please allow 1-3 business days for this to be reflected back in your statement. I apologize for the inconvenience this may have caused.

Damn, waited too long, and FCP is out again. Although the fact that they changed the design of the backing makes me hopeful that they won't be NLA for a bit still. Why else would they bother changing them if they were going to stop selling them immediately.

They changed the backing a little while ago. Mine had the new backing when I bought mine a bit over a year ago. I think all the e46 mats (m and non-m) were changed over.
