Icon2 Fixing Optional Trunk Mat
Finally came home to the R after more than a year. I noticed the rubber backing on the trunk mat (around the edges) have become brittle and breaking off from the cloth part. Is there a rubber in a can I can use to fix it?

I was planning on posting this same thing not too long ago. How bad is it? If its still in the dry stage and not yet all the way cracked, maybe there is some kind of conditioner for that foam rubber material.

There is a small part where you can see the weave. Too late for a conditioner.

Tape it off and try either plasti dip or car under sealant.

I bought a normal "A" logo trunkmat back in '05 or so for $47 on ebay. Even those silly things are going for big $$ now.

Should have bought an ITR mat, but they were about double the price back then.
