#1 Interior colour v carpet colour

Post by ETTony » Wed Oct 18, 2017 7:33 am

Hi Guys, I am just about to order my interior from Aldridge.
My roadster is black, I am going with a biscuit interior.
Q. Do you go with the same coloured carpets or a shade darker maybe cinnamon.

Pondering in soggy Devon

Thanks

Hi Tony

Some scotch guard helps on fabrics to stop them accumulating too much dirt :)

Hi Tony,
BRG with Biscuit, have fitted rubber mats on top of the floor carpets, which I find very practical for ease of cleaning:

thanks team, i have gone with the biscuit and carpets in cinnamon.
Going to fit it myself.
I will need my brave pills for removing and refitting the hood.
Should have the material for Christmas.

Oh, is it a ban mentioning the C word in October. :oops:
