How about as a step up from bare metal, using black ribbed rubber matting. I am pretty sure you can buy it from Woollies Trim.
I love the smell of burnt rubber and hydrocarbons in the morning, it smells of......victory.

No Carpet atall..

Press some Ali Steets with counter sunk holes ( like the GT40 seats ) for floor plates go for the whole one off thing..

hmmnn now that idea i like ali floor mats wonder who i could get to make them???

think i would still carpet where the rear seats should be for tidyness sake
I was goin to run completely stripped out but could put up for ever cleaning the blood orange floor,so i repainted it all black and decided to part carpet rs style as back seats are goin floor to be decided
