Cheapest Improvement for your Car's Interior - Replace the Weathertech Mat Logo
Have those Weathertech Winter Mats? Don't you hate the Weathertech Logo?
I have an M2 and made up some "M" Stickers to replace the existing logo. Thing is I had to do a minimum run of 100. So I'm selling them off. They are not expensive $11/pair shipped to the US. Or $12CN if you live in Canada. I'm not making money! Like this. PM me with your email address if you would like a pair or 2.

Thanks for your orders. I can't believe the response. I've shipped out at least 60 this weekend.

Trademark infringement if you aren't paying a licensing fee, do what you want but if anyone and everyone could use a brands logo billions wouldn’t be spent protecting trademarks.

Why don't BMW rebrand these mats? MINI do. Not worth the money. No one here is making any money or in any way being really bad. We are not saying or being disrespectful. Are we selling these mats saying they are BMW originals. NO NO NO. When IND repaint an original part a different color and sell it.....I would say the "Brand Lawyer" should go after them. They are modifying a possible copy written logo for money.

Really am I not just helping them advertise. If I was the owner of that logo I would be only too happy and not see it as anything but a bonus.

I never said don’t do it and I agree it will probably never reach their radar but I guarantee some BMW employees read these threads. Licensing is a huge business and its not wise to stick it in their face because they may bite back.

I find 2 things absolutely disturbing after reading this thread:
1. 60+ people chose to buy these aftermarket mats when BMW offers an OEM 2-series all-weather mat that does the exact same thing, but with a BMW logo... from BMW... and for like half the price. 2. 60+ people chose to put more tacky M badges on their cars. Shame on so many different levels. Tsk tsk tsk.

The stock mats don't work. (You clearly don't live near snow) The Weahertech mats have high edges and actually stop liquids getting on your expensive carpet as opposed to the BMW mats which don't. So I find it somewhat interesting that you are "disturbed" by this.

I must take exception. Of all the signs of the self-inflicted apocalypse, I believe you missed what is among the greatest. The below post only has four words, yet it starts with the meaningless, "Like".

Owe yes ….and I own a set of both mats as they gave me a set of BMW mats as part of the deal. I must be even more stupid than the other 60.
