Default Re: Nova Rubber Floor Mats

The repro mats are incorrect and very difficult to work with. It's best to find a mat from another car, regardless of year or color. The '72 mat will work fine, a '73 or '74 mat will also work with a little adjustment.

All of the mats are actually black. So, if you find a blue or green one, buy it. When you turn it over you'll see that it's not blue or green but black, GM simply painted the topside with blue or green paint! So, clean the topside with some lacquer thinner, and spray it black. Same goes for a black mat that looks tired, just spray it with some black lacquer and it will look as new.
