Ford Flex Connection & Super Car Sunday

 On Saturday we hosted a Ford Flex event in conjunction with FordFlex.Net. We had a few local Flex owners over at California Car Cover to show them all the products we offer for the vehicles and demonstrate some Golden Shine Car Care.

 Local author Dee Thompson brought out his custom wrapped Flex to showcase his literature and unique story.

 Special thanks goes out to the attendees and FordFlex.Net for donating stickers and water bottles for all event attendees. In addition, we would like to thank the event sponsors that donated some great door prizes for the event. Thank you to Weathertech, T-Rex Grilles and XPEL.

 

Sunday morning I was off to Super Car Sunday in Woodland Hills, Ca. The April marquee was Lamborghini, but there were plenty of other new and classic cars to check out. 

 

  

This photo is an example of why so many people cruise over to SCS on the last Sunday of the month. You can see a Mustang Boss 302, Ford GT, Bentley and a Chevy Nova all at one car show. The event draws a great variety of cars from all over the Los Angeles area.

Custom Carpet Floor Mats from Lloyd Mats

A new set of custom floor mats is just what your vehicle's interior needs to look much better in minutes. California Car Cover carries a variety of floor mat styles and brands for just about any vehicle. This particular set is from Lloyd Mats. The mats shown below are the new mats for my 2010 Ford Flex.
The original floor mats were starting to show some wear so it was time to upgrade them. I ordered a set of custom carpet mats from Lloyd for my vehicle. They offer a few different styles and materials, such as berber carpet, rubber and extra plush carpet. I opted for the standard weight floor mats in black.
Check out the difference! The mat on the left is my driver's side floor mat and the new driver's side mat from Lloyd is on the right. Lloyd Mats are designed for the best fit and most coverage. This way more of your factory interior is protected.
These mats are available in a variety of colors, 52 different colors if you can believe it. The mats are made of 32 oz. densely packed premium nylon carpet.
Lloyd does a great job in utilizing factory anchoring systems to keep front mats in place. My Ford Flex has a small tab on the driver's side to prevent the mat from sliding. The Lloyd mats features a reinforced grommet ring in the same location.
Above is the new second row floor mat on the right and the factory mat on the left. Not only is the new mat thicker, but it protects more of the backseat floor area from dirt and spills.
New floor mats in place.
There are multiple ways to protect your interior with Lloyd Mats. They can custom order a cargo mat whether your third row seat are up or down for most vehicles. Above is a cargo mat that can be used when the 3rd row seats are being used.
This cargo mat can be rolled into place when the 3rd row seats are folded mat. I usually have the 3rd row seat folded flat when I am hauling products to car shows or our photo studio. The carpet mat looks great and protects the seat backs from damage.

Live in the Southern California area? Stop by our showroom in Chatsworth, Ca to view our custom Lloyd Mats display. The display showcases all of the mats available from Lloyd Mats. You can view all the colors, fabrics and styles and see what mat will look best in your vehicle. Visit California Car Cover for more details.
