I'm pretty sure all of the S4 N/A carpet kits are the same. Just need to be sure and order one w/ your storage bin setup (bins, 2+2, or nothing)

I think all models had the same carpeting in all the years. Mazdatrix has some so does Victoriabritish. I don't know if those will be "cheap" enough for you though.

Wrong again. Base models had a low pile carpet, while other models had a much fuzzier, softer and higher pile carpet.

The shape is the same. Someone who wants an original car will want to know if the pile is different. Personally, I HATE the longer pile. I would be pissed if I got the wrong carpet.

I am not that picky. BTW the in GXL I have the carpet looks the same and is not fluffier than my sport. Or does Sport not cound as a base model?

Sports were not base models. It is only the "truely" base model that has the non-fluffy carpet.
