custom interior mats

I can't remember if it was here on OMC, did someone get their SP20 mats remade by someone including their own embroidery and the locking plastic bit sewn in? Or does someone know a place in Oz that does that. I woudl very much like to replace the crappy foam backed Mazda ones with rubber backed ones, and would like ones that actually match the model of my car (ie not SP20) and are still the correct shapes etc.

Main prob is the drivers side is wearing through.

Mate, as u know i had same problem.

so i went to Clark Rubber got some 4mm thick rubber cut up.
then i used existing mat a template and cut accordingly.
i only cut up to where my foot stands so the sp20 logo on stock mat can still be seen.

Any recommendations in Melb, I got the Mazda set quite cheap and could get another set but tehy are overpriced and pretty crap, and I can't get them as cheap, its really only the drivers one that everyone has the prob with.

ok that makes more sense, I reckon if I could get some front ones made up, it would be good,..the rear ones look brand new, and I could actually get the right logo on them, the SP20 mats are the right colour but the wrong logo.
