Lloyds Floor Mats
I just purchased some Lloyds mats from West Coast Corvettes in grey.
My car is a 99 Nassau Blue coupe with grey interior. The Lloyd's mats are much lighter than my stock mats. Has anyone seen this. I would think the color of the Lloyd's should be the same as stock.

I bought some black floor mats from Lloyds and they aren't exact either, they look great but they aren't exact! But with the difference in dye lots etc I don't think theres anyway they can be!

Secondly you can probably take 2 brand new never used gray interiors from GM one at the being of the year and one at the end of the year and they will not match.
Thirdly your car is a 99 so they is a chance of fade on your carpet due to the sun and wear and tear.
just my opinion

Hard to get an exact match on a car that is 5-6 years old.

Isn't there a tag on the back of the mats? WCC is pretty good to deal with - maybe you should give Paul a call and explain!

Nope I have not seen this from Loyd's Mats. I have a set of Light Oak that match my interior color. I can't see a difference if there is one. You may have gotten a bad batch, I would contact them and let them know.

My shale Lloyds mats are perfect! They are bigger (cover more of the floor), are a better quality carpet and have a really nice logo on them. About $75 with shipping off EBay. I would buy them again.

I spoke with someone at Lloyds yesterday. Lloyds sells several different shades of grey for the C5. If you look on there web page there are several different shades of grey to choose from.
They supply vendors with the shade that they request. West Coast Corvettes uses color #162 for grey. If you look at the colors available this one is obviously too light. West Coast is taking my mats in return. If I order again I will go direct to Lloyds.
