i would offset all the black in your interior with complementing RED floormats, with a BLACK embroidered emblem.

I have the black mats with a red logo; they look great. Now I'm trying to decide if I want to add a red shift boot or shift ****.

Default Check Out The C4 Black Mats........

that have the red emblem and the bright red binding trim. I got them as a present for Christmas for my Torch Red 1995 Coupe and think they look great. If nothing else, they break up the dull all black look inside.

We want a pic of a torch red Corvette... not a red Chevette . Ya know it would be cool to find someone who owns both. They could have a trailor hitch on the Chevette to tow their Corvette to shows and stuff... nevermind

I think the red emblem would look best because there is nothing silver about your car... think about it. If you open the door to your car to show it off... the red emblem will match and accent the body color, the silver would stand out like a sour thumb as if it don't belong.

I have a 96 LT1 coupe with red interior. Just bought a set of RED floor mats from Eckler's with the C4 logo for $40. They fit nice and look good.
