Garage Alpha Mats, key and service
Wanted to take a moment to praise and review Garage Alpha for my recent order.
Little background- A few months ago(July) I had ordered "Rx-7" floor mats from another company that shall remain nameless. I considered the Garage Alpha at the time, but these were cheaper and if I am being honest I liked the Red stitched "RX-7" on the floor mats. Unfortunately the mats that I had received were extremely poorly made. After 3-400 miles at most of use you can see that they are destroyed. The rubber portion around the grommet cracked and the grommet no longer secured the mat in place. The carpet portion of the mat was literally almost down to the rubber. I reached out to the seller to show them the poor quality and see if they would send another pair or refund me, but instead they decided to just not respond. Long story short Paypal agreed with me that they were junk and refunded my money.
Current- For black Friday I had seen that Garage Alpha decided to run a sale on a lot of items. I decided I needed to step up and order these based off other forum member reviews. I was on the fence about the RX7 aluminum seal, but am glad that I decided to get them with. I also ordered their Flying M keys for my FD. They were extremely responsive and the quality of these mats are infinitely better than what I had or even what I remember the OEM mat to be.
Photos below speak for themselves. Would not hesitate in ordering from them again. They ended up sending me the little rotor keychain AND a black Flying M key for free. I wanted to return the black key as I thought they made an error, but they said they sent on purpose because its hard to decide between the black and red keys.

Thanks for the kind words!
Since day one, our only goal has been to make cool stuff for our own personal cars. We have always used this mantra to guide us - which (I hope) ensures we ONLY deliver high quality goods.
I can't tell you how much I appreciate the positive feedback and taking the time to photograph, type all this up, etc. It really means the world to us and me personally.

I too would like to share some love. I placed an order last thanksgiving and was given a lot of goodies, including a bonus key.
Quick and friendly to reply to emails and clearly operated by enthusiasts.
The floor mats are the best reproduction mats I've seen and actually make the car smell new. A buddy bought common replacement mats for a z32 and the car smelled like melted plastic.
Every single rx7 should have the gas pedal as well. Took all but 2 minutes to install.
Forgive the mid-assembly pic. Now I just need to clean those other pedals...
