Aries Floor Liners/Mats
Weathertech is a great product and quite of few people choose them.
These new 3D liners by U-Ace are worthy of strong consideration. They are extremely well made and the coverage is excellent. They also stay in place and won't shift around. It's great to have more choices in liners for our vehicles.

Welcome to the forum.
Haven't actually ordered them yet. Literally just shipped out those Weathertech's today. As long as it stays decently dry here (it won't
) I'll wait for the refund and just do a switch out.

Same 3D liners direct from U-Ace, without Aries branding and better price.
Ordered them today. I had emailed him on Saturday after checking on coupons etc. and he said it was already factored in. Either way, I'm saving $40 off of my Weathertech's and these look to be much thicker and better quality.
Real Floor Mat
I saw these posts and decided to get the rear mat for my 2010 Fit Sport. Bought from Amazon ($72), color black. The mat came in good shape, and fit very well. The back of the mat is made of some material that holds well enough that there is no way for sliding to happen; the top material is like a carbon fiber looking plastic/rubber; it looks good. I'll be getting the front mats in a few weeks, since I like the rear so well.
I got the back set the other night. The front set is still backordered. A lot softer than I would've thought. That spider grip really prevents sliding. Heck, I had a hard time getting them in.
Front Aries
Ordered the front set from Amazon, put them in yesterday. They are great looking and fit well, except for that small bulge on the driver's side near your right foot (others have mentioned this). Very happy with the rear and the front set.
Just put these in my 2010 fit. Overall i am happy. The only issues i have are :
1. the gap issue along the right edge of the driver side mat. common. though i am going to try to solve this soon.
2. Creates issues driving in flip flops, which i wear all the time. the ridge along the mat's foot pad beneath the clutch keeps catching the heel of the flop . doesn't seem to happen with shoes. This is more of a FYI factoid rather than a design flaw. Considering you shouldn't drive in flops. So i drive barefoot now.
The good news is that the mats feel much better on bare feet than the stock carpet.
Well worth the investment.

Glad to see that the Aries mats are getting so popular. I've had mine for about 2 months and they are still exactly the same as the day I got them. I love that the color is a matte black look, so it doesn't show dust as much. Very easy to vacuum. The mat never even dreamed of shifting once.
FYI, the gap along the drivers door edge is enough to let some dust and dirt fall down there. Justo well back the edge a bit and vacuum it out.

Rear Coverage:
Under the rear magic seat, the coverage is nearly perfect:

With the front seat slid all the way forward, the coverage is quite good:[\B]

Problem Areas Of The Liners:
There is a small gap at the right side of the driver's mat that is a problem with the mold. It was just molded incorrectly here and there's nothing to be done. I don't think it's even close to a deal breaker and it is by far the biggest problem:

B]At the top of the dead pedal there is another gap that is a result of a slightly incorrect molding. Again, unless you have really big feet, covered with mud or ice, you probably won't have an issue with it:

If you press down at the bottom of the dead pedal, a gap will form to the left. This may be a problem if you were to step in (pressure) and your other foot slid in causing debris to fall in. Again, very, very minimal chance since the gap is virtually tiny:

There is a tiny little gap right at the bottom of the drivers seat. It is nearly unnoticeable:

On the passenger's side, there is a gap at the top left of the liner:

This could definitely be a problem if your passenger were to straighten their legs out and angle their right foot a bit:

How do they clean up? Using the hose okay? NJ and there's salt everywhere, mud, etc. So I will need to clean them up. That's why I originally was looking at the Husky rubber ones, but these look so much nicer.
