I was thinking of making separate mats for the top and bottom boards so I can remove the bottom without having to remove the whole mat. The last time I removed it part of it cracked.

I don't recall exactly what the material was. It was a neoprene material. I was able to make it the exact size. A single piece of 1/4" or 3/16" material that will never tear when removed and reinstalled. My floorboards are the ones the venders sell, unmodified. I only had to modify the steel plate that finishes the final hole. The emergency brake handle ends up in the same place, and the shift tower is within an inch to the rear of where the model A tower would be. The material I used I purchased from McMaster Carr as a sheet that I cut to size. I chose a smooth, un-patterned material. My focus was a material that wont ever tear or dry out no matter how many times I removed it.
