Default Carpet color

I'm in the process of replacing the interior of my Brands Hatch Green with dark green interior 71 vette. The carpet in it now a lighter green than the rest of the interior. I don't see a dark green option for the carpet of a 71. Should the carpet color be a medium green like what is in it now?

There is only one green for the 71s; code 423 in vinyl only.

I believe this is 71 green:


I'm guessing your existing carpet is sun faded with age.

Thanks Mike. The seats are vinyl so do I need the Cut Pile or 80/20 Loop?
