melting LR Rubber Floormats :(
just noticed a few days back....the heel portion of my driver side LR Rubber Mat seems to be melting  anybody experienced this? while the passenger's mat has a slight tear on the metal strip portion. Very poor quality IMO.

RE: melting LR Rubber Floormats :(
could it be that you stepped in petrol or another substance and then got in the car,
and the rubber started dissolving?
I've had this with my security boots, the sole melted after stepping into a chemical

I got a set of heavy duty rubber mats from this UK company.
They fit the Evoque perfectly and the drivers mat extends further forward than some of the LR mats.
