Toecutter aka Sulio knows of just such a person who will do these carpets in Melbourne. I belive he said Alibaba and no it's not a joke. Send him a message an he should be able to point you in the right direction.

I've had about 5 sets of carpets made up at ARLI CARPETS in Webb St Airport West. I've always had the originals to supply for a template. Charges 60 to 100 for all 5 pieces.

Do i hear a group buy? Sulio? 

 

I'm interested in a set as well as my car is missing them.

[Toecutter]

Hi Fufu, for that price not really much need for a group buy. Just drop in and see the guy there. Even if you pay $100.00 it's pretty cheap. I have no need atm.

...wouldn't your carpets be fairly different since its a different model car? and there's not a whole lot of 280zx 2 seaters floating about...

[Toecutter]

ah did'nt read that, sorry I was rushing to log off. Yer my carpets would be useless to you.

I just bought a set off the 'Bay for my 200ZR (Z31) 2 front mats $60 plus postage. They are shaped to fit the footwells properly, not just a generic one-size-fits-all

 

These are for a 300ZX 2+2, but you get the idea:

I've sent them a message asking about 280Z mats for you.

jackson 280ZX:

 

Sorry, had a message back from the vendor saying he doesn't have the pattern.

 

It's not too hard to make your own, though.  Just take some paper (even a large sheet of newspaper), push it into the footwell, flatten it out  and trace around the edges.  I did this when I cut up a rear carpet to make some temp ones for my Z32.

 

If you can't manage that, there must be a wrecker out there with even a tatty pair you get and give to a motor trimmer to duplicate.
