So i finally picked up my f-pace svr last week and the interior is gorgeous but im already paranoid about ruining the carpets since i live in a rainy part of oregon. i am stuck between just getting the official jaguar rubber mats from the dealer or going with the weathertech floorliners. the jag ones look way cleaner with the logo but the weathertechs seem to have better coverage for mud and stuff.
also thinking about upgrading the shifters to those aluminum ones i saw on amazon but dont want them looking tacky. i got about 600 bucks to spend on stuff this month and really want the best fit without it feeling like im cheaping out on a 90k car. which ones actually hold up better in the long run...
Ive been through a few SVRs now and i would suggest being careful with those dealer mats. I used the Jaguar OEM Rubber Floor Mats F-PACE before and they just didnt catch the Oregon mud properly, ended up staining my side carpets anyway. Make sure to look at WeatherTech FloorLiner HP Floor Mats for that deep lip protection. Also, watch out for cheap shifters... mine rattled like crazy.
Congrats on the SVR!! That engine note is absolutely intoxicating, honestly nothing else sounds like it. Like someone mentioned, those dealer mats are okay for light rain but if youre dealing with Oregon muck, you need serious coverage. Since you want to keep it looking like a 90k car while getting maximum protection, I highly recommend looking at these options instead:
