I thought that to be a bit much from the get-go and did not order them. I'm sorry I even spent $75 for the mats. Now just waiting for someone to make a set with the Boss 302 logo on them and I will get them, however the Powered By Ford also sounds like an option.

Gary, I'm fine with the mats. The cover is crap, I'm surprised someone approved such a product. Took it off the car today, folded it up and tossed it in the attic. Some lucky person will think it's a gold mine after I've become part of the planet.

I honestly can't say I know what the cover looks like. It's still in the sealed bag. When I get car covers out here that means one thing....winter. After this past loooong winter, it's too depressing for me to even think about right now.

The Lloyd's aftermarket mats have the holes to attach to the hooks. I believe many like me had hoped for embroidery like the seats on the mats instead of a small patch sewn to the mats.

Covercraft makes a wide range of covers to meet your needs. While they are available for the GT, I haven't seen any listed for the Boss yet. I presume a Boss-specific one will be needed to wrap around the splitter.

Plus it makes the cover dirty for endless scratches into the future (unless you hose the underside off).Some use a duster but I don't even trust that.
Wash, dry, wait an hour or so to fully evap moisture (though my Costco/Covercraft cover is breathable), then cover.

There was a time when The Factory Mats were the BEE's KNEE's. Fords old mat supplier went out during the economic upheaval. After that the mats started coming from China.

I'm glad you are FINALLY happy. 
I just sent Lloyd an email asking if they are going to make Boss 302 mats. They already make them for the 69/70 cars. I'll post their response when I receive it. Scroll down to the Mustangs...

What makes you think you can put ANY cover on when the car is dusty without scratching? Plus it makes the cover dirty for endless scratches into the future (unless you hose the underside off).
Some use a duster but I don't even trust that.
Wash, dry, wait an hour or so to fully evap moisture (though my Costco/Covercraft cover is breathable), then cover.

"Thanks for your interest in Lloyd Mats. As of January 1, 2011, Ford Motor Company is not licensing any Ford emblems (Boss 302) to be put on mats for vehicles 2000 and newer, sorry.
Regards,
Alex"
