Why did you swamp the red floor mats...did it look too red? Also, is that stock if not, where did you get the red carpeting?

Thanks for the pics.

That interior is beautiful! I love it. I agree: The black mats break the red up. Very classy.

Here's mine. Pic taken before I upgraded to Stuzvette's custom T-handle shifter.

I only use the red Lloyd's mats for cruises/shows, not for daily driving. They look great (when kept as new) but the pile breaks down under my heels and they show dirt real fast (I'm on my 2nd set of them). I use the factory black mats for daily use now.

Bolster covers from Mid America, think about $47.00 for the pair. Saved my seats from the dreaded wear.

Wow! 1HotZ06 and Roadrage1: Very, very nice. I love the red with the black as a striking complimentary color combo. Great pics, too. Thanks for sharing.

Best Wishes,
Eden
