Anxiously waiting for my e60 to arrive at the VPC and then to my dealer. Car is on the Resolve, should be at port already. Looked on line for all weather mats. Bavarian auto has custom mats from Germany for $49 ( includes front and rear) Anyone have these mats, and how do they compare with Weathertech

I put some in my wife's 325i and they seem to work just fine. They are about as good as the Weathertech type. BMW makes a set of all weather mats for about $50 (front only) that I got for free from my dealer for my E60. They work good too. Just don't buy any cheap clear plastic mats from Target.

I don't like Weathertechs rear mats, they are not custom sized and must be trimmed. If you trim them they just don't fit well and they won't take them back. I just went through this with them.

BMW makes them for the rear as well. I have a set of four all weather, BMW mats in gray. They look perfect (except that I've managed to get them quite dirty...)

But they clean up well. I managed to get some serious mud off the driver side this afternoon. They look like new. I had my boots on in the mud and with a size 13, I had to clean the side panels of the door, too.

I would recommend going with weathertech I did and quite satisfied with the color and quality of the mates.

I wish you would hurry up and get your car off the Resolve so it can get out of NYC and on to Charleston where some of us others are waiting too

Oh, and all weather mats, I haven't checked yet, but would probably go BMW. If the OEM all weather mats from Audi are examples of the OEM products from German Mfrs then I would not go anywhere else. There mats were best I have seen at any price.

The Weathertech's, while not entirely custom, are of a higher quality, in my opinion. Softer and more pliant(does this sound like a toilet tissue ad)?

I had Weather before. Counting the BMWCCA discount, BMW mats were cheaper and of excellent quality, besides being logoed - sorry, Ice.
