Those are some badass winter mats. Never heard of them. I just emailed them to see if them can custom make ones for our buick as they don't list them. weathertech doesn't make them for the buick either.
Nice car btw

Are those soft and pliable or hard like weatherTechs?
I have husky Xact Contours and they are awesome. Molded but soft material. More like a foam rubber. My only problem is the btanded plaque on the matts are blue and clash with the red interior theme.
Sure noone notices but I do!

Soft and pliable, part of the reason why I bought them. These only have the little nameplates as you could see. We’ve had Weathertech in my wife’s last 2 cars and both had issues with the edges curling. Her last set did it in under a year and had them replaced under warranty.

Those look pretty good Derek! How's the price compared to WeatherTechs? It looks like a shorter lip and I'm thinking that's going to NOT curl up.

Outside lips go all the way up to the trim and inside lip goes the entire tunnel height

Re: What did you do today, in regards to detailing?
I needed to wash the mud from last week's trip off. So I foamed it with Mother's California Gold, all I had on hand, but I've ordered some Carpro Lift and Reset, hoping for delivery this week. Then rinsed under the wheel arches with a hose extension sprayer I've had for years, and forgot I had. Next was a 2B wash with Mother's California Gold. It's a little windy with sunny periods, so even though I was trying to keep it wet, I could see the water spots appearing after only a couple of minutes. I moved it into the garage to dry it, my normal drying aid wasn't doing much for the water spots, so tried some ONR in a QD dilution, worked well. Then buffed it with a clean soft MF. I also sprayed some 303 Aerospace Protectant on the tyres. Last step was cleaning the glass with Angelwax Vision.
