I ended up picking up a set of the U-Ace (from eBay) and like them quite a bit so far. I liked the deep coverage of the Weathertech's but my work boots kept getting jammed up when depressing the clutch...which is obviously a big problem. So far haven't run into that with the U-Ace.

 

That can be dangerous.

I haven't been able to get the liners to shift around. It's like they're stuck there. They just don't move. It's pretty awesome!

 

Absolutely can confirm this. It's actually slightly difficult at first to get them in place because they literally do not slide.

 

In the link in my sig, I took pictures of every angle and every flaw of the U-Ace 3D Liners. There's just too much to post here.

 

The pictures and explanation are great! They go over everything.

Even with the minor fitment issues, I love these mats. Not a deal breaker. A lot of thought went into them for sure!

 

yea I noticed wear on my driver's OEM floor mat after THREE weeks! I will be ordering from Auto Distributors Direct very soon, thanks for the in-depth reviews and pics guys

 

You're going to love them! After you install them, post pics.

 

I tried to give an unbiased look at the product and I hope I covered everything. I really do wish I could do a husky and weathertech review to see how the 3D liner stands up, but from my research I'm pretty sure it would be the clear winner.

For me, the Maxspider grip and the sporty look make for a solid one-two punch of form and function.

 

yes. Everything fits great except the driver side. I'm these two gaps are really annoying me and I'm not sure if there are possible ways to fix this.

 

I haven't figured out anything to solve the problem of those gaps yet. It's not a priority for me because I'm in sunny california, but I will report if I get any ideas.

From what I understand, husky and weathertech both have gaps as well, so there isn't really a better alternative.

 

I would never even notice the gap. Over time they probably will move or settle from use. I have the Husky mats I like them they hold everything especially when i get into the car with snow on my shoes. Your mats blend in better really not that much more in cost to my Husky. I have to check to see maybe picking up a set actually would have to buy two sets.

 

My name is Joe, and I own Auto Distributor Direct.

I have had the Husky's in a Malibu, the WeatherTech's in my Regal, and the 3D's in my truck. The 3D's were by far the best, which is why I picked them up as a product and started my business. These mats have a 3 year warranty, so longevity won't be an issue. We have some sets that are over 2 years old now with no issues.

I am looking into becoming a member here since there has been a lot of business from this site, I am just waiting on pricing back.

You guys can find the mats at: Auto Distributor Direct

Thanks for the support!

 

That's awesome about the sponsorship Joe! Joe is a great guy. He answered all my questions about the 3D liners and ships fast! The liners are pure awesomeness!

Joe here's my thread about my liners: https://www.fitfreak.net/forums/2nd-...ml#post1164868

 

Thanks a lot! Hopefully it fits in my budget to join, I don't want to post too much until I find out. I appreciate all the business you guys have sent to me.

 

Thanks Joe for providing the liners at such a great price. Also thank you for the super fast shipping. I love my liners.

 

I believe this is a video of Joe, from Auto Distributor Direct, going over the U-Ace 3d liners:

 

You guys really have me considering returning my Weathertechs. I do have a question, Joe may have some insight.

In a lot of the pictures, including those linked on Amazon and others on FF, I've seen the liner with the retaining device covered up. Is that a newer design, choice when ordering, etc? I'm personally fond of using the retaining devices myself.

 

There is absolute no reason to use the retaining devices with these mats. The retaining devices work about half as well as the MaxSpider grip bottom.

 

Mikeyk12 is right. You won't need the retaining devices with these liners. Once they're in place on the carpet you can't move or slide them around. It's really incredible.

 

New Fit Freak here. I highly recommend Weathertech for a multitude of good reasons.
Being in IL, I went to Weathertech HQ, which has a retail store.
* First off, its an amazing facility. They treat the customer like they are royalty.
* If its important to you, they're a US brand and keep a lot of people in Illinois employed.
* And if the righteous stuff isn't important; they have a high-end coffee bar and ply you with free coffees and pastries while you wait. (Foofy coffee drinks, not just some old brown cup of joe) (They treat you like a king!)
* I bought the front mats for $99. They are custom to the car make/model. The crappy ones at Target are like $40 and smell like burnt rubber.
So, if you love your Fit, and you obviously do... why else are you on a Fit forum.. :-)

I seriously recommend Weathertech..cannot say enough good things about them (And no, I don't work for them.. but after seeing their impressive operations, I would actually consider it!)

Now back to searching on bumpers and wax... I'm new :-)
