Pimping Your Ride For Dummies

People purchase vehicles for thousands of dollars and often bust out the big bucks for additional accessories. Adding rims, stereo equipment, DVD players, and body kits are excellent ways to customize and enhance your vehicle, but before shelling out your hard-earned cash you should consider starting with the basics. Step one: The incredible, durable, and valuable floor mat.


Not only are floor mats a relatively inexpensive accessory for your ride, but they can greatly increase the appearance and life of your interior. As awesome as it would be to have everyone checking out your whip as you’re rolling down the street on some clean, chrome 18’s, you’re the one that has to live with the inside of the car. And like my momma used to tell me, “It’s what’s on the inside that matters.” No one wants to step into a car with a filthy floor. Gum, grime, dirt, and gunk can really foul up your floor—and can be a real nuisance to clean. Do you really want to spend your time scrubbing the dootie stank out of your car because your buddy was oblivious to the brown mound he just stepped in? Car floor mats nowadays are made from practically indestructible materials like thermo-plastic rubberized vinyl (fancy for ridiculously strong). With the amount of science and planning that goes into the construction of these mats, you would think NASA was lining their shuttles with them. Companies like Husky, RubberTite, Weathertech, and Hexomat all custom tailor their mats to fit the make and year of pretty much any car. This means that the sturdy form of the mats will contour perfectly to your car, eliminating the awkward fit of generic mats. In addition a great fit, some mats have a honeycomb design that can hold an amazing 6-8 cups of liquid without allowing the mess to reach your carpet! They come in come a variety of colors and styles, giving consumers a good selection to find the right mat for their car. So before you go dropping the big bucks on pimping out your car, consider making a valuable investment on a relatively inexpensive product that can provide some serious benefits. You’ve just been pimped. – Mike Rosania
