Picture of back of the Mat, the pile seem very short to me. The pile of these marts is a lot shorter than my 4 series. Honestly if they did not come from the dealer I would question the authenticity of these.

Whether they're worth a damn or not, guess we'll see, but take heart in knowing yours are ten times better than the garbage I just got from Lithuania.

The logo mats are a US thing, they're not available in europe because they are produced by an american company for all their models here.

They are basically a licensed bmw product in the states hence don't appear in etk and other channels but they may very well be having supply chain issues.

Like I said, seems the manufacturer was able to make recent runs.

My mats from FCP are due in tomorrow. I'll post what I see quality wise compared to the mats I currently have that are around 10-12 years old.

That would be great news. Do they have the old-style backing? Sounds like some people got a revised version a few months back.

I have been out of the E46 game for 10 years, so not sure. The manufacture date was July of 2021 so they are fresh. But compared to the mats I had 15+ years these are different, they seem thinner and the backing is different. But I remember back in the day the old backing would disintegrate.

Just picked up a set from my dealer. The local warehouse has 20+ in stock. I don’t think these are NAL.

Hell yes, thanks for the tip. Hopefully, it ships, and hopefully, it was just COVID-related supply chain issues.

Yeah, with eBay no matter how sketchy it may seem there's no harm in trying. eBay really protects the buyer and you're pretty much guaranteed to get your money back.

Exactly why I tried, they've never denied a return. Although it's stated that I pay for return shipping, I demanded the seller pay it for their outright deceit and my hassle returning them. Not holding my breath on that one.

Thank you. I know you warned me about these, but the pictures sure as hell is not what they sent. Anyway, I already sent my return thorough Fleabay and if I don't hear back from the seller in a few days, then I hand it over to Fleabay for resolution.
Hopefully my new injectors won't blow up the car after install...
