Black badges in Florett silver might actually look good. But on a black car, I think there should be some silver/chrome to break the monotony. Silver for classy cars and other colors for sporty cars.

Thanks for the fact! I saw the rear of the Bentayga a couple weeks ago and thought it looked plain for a Bentley.

Sure! Interesting, they rate the Q7 higher than the Bentley. I'm sure they factored in price.

So the FedEx man came bearing gifts earlier this evening. As you can see I got the mats for the front, middle and rear. I will throw them in the morning and take couple shots.

Do the WT mats have any sort of teeth on the bottom of them? The WT cargo liner has no teeth on it and since cargo liner comes rolled up in a box the corners may have a nice curl to them if you decide to get cargo liner.

Lay the liner in the sun to warm it up, then put it into the car - it should pretty much mold itself to the interior of the rear. The mats don't have teeth but don't need any since they fit like a glove; won't slide around.

Off-topic: The OEM mat actually slides. I ended up getting the OEM cargo net to secure it in place. The cargo net turns out to be real useful. My trunk looks a bit busy, but everything is secure in place now and they function well.

Here is the underside of the front mat. But these snap right in, and as it was said not going nowhere. The middle row snap in too

Finally got the weather tech mats in and they fit like a glove in all the positions. Not only do the front mats snap in but so does the middle.
