Hi guys.

Need your help here. I'm helping a friend of mine to renew the interior of his 67 Bug and we are therefore looking for floor mats in tan/brown to replace the current one.

Any idea where to find this new?

This is how it all looks like now:

Nobody I know of is repoping the honey brown mats, if they were, I would have a set in my 61. Laughing
Your only option I know of, would be to find some NOS ones, or buy repop, or a used set of black ones, and re-spray them to the correct honey brown. Down the road, that's what I plan on doing with my 61. I have had great luck with Sems products btw. Cool

Thanks for your help here. Wolfsburg West recommends having the mats died but hopefully I'll find a NOS set somewhere as this recommendation sounds like a lot of hassle.

Yes- have repops professionally dyed through an auto detailer who specializes in the process- it's quite a bit better than SEM- and 10x the money. Our local guy's business is called ColorCraft if I recall correctly.
