Bonus
I was cleaning my car this weekend and discovered a bonus! Under my AMG floor mats was a set of Designo leather trimmed mats. They are quite nice...nicer than the AMG actually. I guess they are in the car either because of the X11 package or the fact that the car is a custom color?

Pic
Sure, I can take a pic. The only thing a little weird about them is that the lettering is black and the mats are black, so the "designo" label does not "pop" out. It's funny, I was trying to figure out why the mats were not attaching and I noticed that there was another mat underneath attached to the floor mounts.
I do know that you can get the AMG mats with leather edging part HWA 230 680 00 48. Maybe Ricky can get them? I don't know the designo part #.

Designo Mat Pic
Okay, I took a picture of the mat. Man, it is hard to take a picture of a black floor mat! Anyway, here it is. You can see that the Designo label is not that obvious due to the lack of contrast in the stitching. Also, note though the very nice black leather piping around the edges.
