Vert Carpet in the Trunk ?

Was black the standard trunk area carpeting, Mine has black and several pics' i've seen also show black? All my interior is black and i want to go with gray, currently trying to find all interior parts for the switch. Found gray trunk side panels on e-bay so far, I still need the back seat area side panels .

I have a part's car with gray interior so i will have the carpet and shifter console, door panels,seats & some other misc .Can i just dye the carpet for my tonneau area to gray???

Thanks

the carpet in the trunk area of my 87 vert is the same color as the interior carpet ,which in my case is red, i tried some of that carpet dye,its ok but not the best in my opinion, i go to ebay all the time,and it seems like as far as interior pieces ,they seem to have more grey than any other color, give it some time and you should find anything you need there.

yeah my wife's 88 vert has deluxe grey interior, and it has grey carpet in the trunk. So there should be grey pieces / carpet out there!

I believe they made a switch to everything being black in 90 or 91 or so. My Tan interior has black from the rear seat back.

Re: Vert Carpet in the Trunk ?

I got to see this up-close when replacing the carpet in my '92 Z28 droptop a few weeks back. Gray carpet, ending behind the passenger seat wells ... Black carpet going into the cargo/trunk area. Hadn't really thought of it until I saw this thread.

Re: Vert Carpet in the Trunk ?

Could it be that the "custom cloth" interior option packages got color-keyd cargo areas? My 90 has red int. and a red cargo area and has a $327 "custom cloth" option package on the window sticker and my 85 coupe was the same. I'd hope for that much (20 yrs ago) you got something more than differnt seat covers.

Re: Vert Carpet in the Trunk ?

Good thought on the custom cloth RPO ... My '92 has that, and it's still black cargo/trunk with dove gray passenger area carpet. I didn't realize my original carpet was in such bad shape until I pulled it out and replaced it with new threads from ACC. So much better now!
