What color carpet to get??
Should I keep the stock color of burgundy or go with black. I kind of want to get black but I'm afraid it might not go right with the color of the back seat and interior panels. They're burgundy as well, but then again black goes with anything right. Any opinions??

The only problem with black is that it's really difficult to clean. This may sound silly but the white dirt shows up horrendusly. What about charcoal? That's what I'm considering. My black carpet in my other car is a bast@rd to clean.

I know black paint is hard to keep clean, but I was thinking that black carpet would kind of hide dirt a little better. I may just go with charcoal.

A Black carpet would go with anything in my opinion.
It is probably a matter of taste than anything else.
