Default Has anyone Done Red Mats With The Red Interior

Or do you think it's too much red?

I used black mats with red trim. I think red mats render too much red. You need to balance everything. Well, this is my opinion only...

Can not remember who but someone posted a picture red interior with red mats. A bit too much red for my taste need some contrast. As 1kulc7 stated black mats with a red border looks great.

Personally I think it would look OK. But so would black mats with the red trim.

Here's a pic from another thread https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums...post1588322252

Scroll down a bit from the pic and the Vendor posts stating that the red mat (Lloyds) was not a 100% match with the adrenaline red seats but looked good.

I did the Lloyd red mats in mine. It is a 2LT and I actually liked the extra red...maybe if it was 3LT it might have been too much, but I like it this way.

I went a slighty different way. I cannot bear the thought of my mats getting dirty, so I cover them with other mats. Yes, OCD is the cause. I do like the red mats with red interior for the record. Actually on second thought my approach is good for the trip to the local car show.

If I didn't have weather tech for winter and stingray mats for summer already I would for sure get those red mats. They look great!

makes my eyes bleed. I had an '03 with all black interior, what a dark and desolate place, my two tone interior now is a much happier place in which to be commuting in.
