I had purchased a set of E46 M3 mats a few years back because they had the \/\/\/M symbol stitched in but the mats were not the correct size, so the drivers side floor mat would slide around all the time.  So having been given a $100 gift certificate from Bavarian AutoSport, I decided to pick up a set of their &#8220;Ultimate Floor Mats&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>These carpets looked the part but we did have a problem.  They are not allowed to use the BMW specific lettering on their custom stitched floor mats.<\/p>\n<p>At first this seemed like a problem, but then a bulb lit up over my head.  Why not just put &#8220;Joey&#8217;s M3&#8221; on the mats?<\/p>\n<p>I know some of you will think it&#8217;s corny but I don&#8217;t mind it.
