Would anybody happen to have a photo of Newton Commercial's moulded carpet set in their standard 'grey' colour (https://newtoncomm.c...t=7042732884019), but actually fitted to a car? Just trying to compare the colour with my current interior, and decide whether to stick with grey or go with black instead. Thanks in advance!

the back seats are a really dark blue, black covers ready to go but regarding the carpet I think its a bit light, a darker grey or black would look better in my opinion but i'm not forking out another 200 quid!

have a look at optimise automotive too, i've fitted their headlining kit and i'm super impressed with it so for 200 pound i think their carpet will be every bit as good(maybe better) than the newton kit

Thanks for the pics guys  :proud:

 

That first photo of the Mk1 carpet looks much darker / bluer than the set fitted to the later car, which actually looks to be a perfect match for my existing factory carpets in my '91:

So it looks like Newton are supplying as close to factory period-correct colours as possible, based on the year of the car?

 

I didn't know Optimise made a carpet set as well, that actually looks like a decent option from the details on their website. Previous posts I've seen all seem to suggest Newton is always the best, but maybe the Optimise set is worth a go, they certainly make it sound like a much easier job to fit than other carpet sets.

I have emailed to ask for some samples, just thought it would also be nice to see photos of a complete carpet set actually fitted to an interior  :proud:
