I have had the torch red mats for two years now and they still look like new.The only time they are out of the car is at the track.

Pretty much sums it up.

Love this interior.....

When I had my 2003 TR vert, I was going toward this look (except two toned seats) before I traded it in on a 2005...

Thanks!! I'm wanting to do the two tone seats as well, just trying to put away funds and keep from buying other mods first, haha.

once you go red you never go back....but you should know that in addition to the heel mark at the accelerator the white in the flags also gets dirty/grey looking too. So you might want to go with a black script "corvette" instead of the flags. I shampoo mine at least 2ce a summer and the red looks awsome but the heel mark remains....
