factory floor mats for the coupe? Scared at what the dealer would prob ask for them. Does anyone else sell them? The dirt from last winter, grease from my dumbass friends shoe, and fettuccini stain from my wife spilling carryout make the mats look like crap!

Before you spring for new mats, try this:
Buy some degreaser such as Castrol Deep Purple (somethinglike that), Simple Green, Etc. Dilute to 3 parts degreaser 1 part water and put in spray bottle. Also, grab some liquid tide (same for your clothes...I use the regular kind, never tried the color safe bleach one). I usually start by giving the mats a quick vacuum and then spraying the mats (outside the car) with the degreaser solution on the troubled areas, let it soak in for a few minutes, spray surrounding areas. I then mist it with water and brush with a stiff brush, similar to one you would use on your tires. Next, without rinsing, poor some of the liquid detergent directly on the mat (try to distribute as evenly as possibly. A few strips from end to end should do it) Mist with water again. Should be kinda sudsy now. Brush again, in all directions especially the soiled areas. To finish, I rinse and brush several times. It helps if you place the mat vertically on a hard surface while you hold and spray with water on a jet setting. Continue to rinse until the water runs clear off the mat to ensure all the solution/soap is off. Next, use a wet/dry vac to vacuum the water off the mat. I prefer to vacuum in all directions again and finish by vacuuming in the direction the nap goes. The vacuuming should remove abou 80-85% of the water. Hang the mat on a line, chair, step, etc in the sun. Give a little while to dry and you'll be surprised how much cleaner they will be!! It will be cheaper then buying new and should remove most of your trouble!

Follow the above with scotchguard spray and your mats will take the abuse better in the future. I have the willow interior and the mats always looked dirty. I scotchguard right after cleaning and it's made a night and day difference.

 

i have the willow interior and it's really hard to keep clean. however, i also scotchguarded the mats and it's worked great!!! before that, i just used regular carpet cleaners you can find in any store. it cleaned it up pretty good.

 

If you do go for new mats, get the Infiniti ones. Yes they are more expensive, but man are they good, and they fit very nicely, and won't move.
I initially bought cheapies, but quickly got tired of moving them every time I got in the car. They also hung up on the pedals easily too. Not good.

Check with StrictlyZ - they may stock them. If not www.everythingg35.com has them for $71.25 ++.

You may want to think about Nismo mats. The black on Gray looks excellent IMO.

The dealer wanted to charge me more than the listed price on the Infiniti website. I printed out the Infiniti webpage (i.e., under accessories) with the price ($76.00) and the dealer honored it, plus tax.

You can also order from a site like Grubbs or Everything G35. Just factor in shipping and/or tax and see how much the difference is.

 

everythingg35 wants $85 jeez!

Where did you get the aluminum pedals with the infiniti logo on them?

Def. agree with the factory mats! I spent over $100 on Weather Tech's Luxury Advantage Mats (Also sold by Griots) which are very nicely made, but I figured for that money they would be an exact fit, they aren't. The rears are still big and I can't trim them anymore and the fronts are not shaped well enough. After the 3rd or 4th time of my accelerator getting stuck to the mat and floor, I removed my drivers side mat for obvious safety concerns!!!!
