Oatmeal square weave with a black interior?

Purists please don't shoot, but I love square weave carpet. The interior of my GPW cab is black but I'm not a big fan of black carpet. Anyone have a pic of a black interior w/ lighter carpet? I read where J Dean's Speedster was white with black seats, tan carpet and a black top but I can't find a pic.

I love the square weave, I'm considering this for my 88' to replace the nappy silver knit. The silver knit is like gorilla hair!

Thanks....it's a door handle that used to be available from Rennline (no longer on their website) but it didn't look exactly like this. It was more of a hook design and I basically cut the hook off making the end come to a point!

Sorry about the hijack, but I am also considering this type of carpet when I refurb my interior. I have a fairly dark blue (Marine Blue) exterior with blue on every interior surface - kinda dark inside.

Anyway, I'm thinking of a lighter carpet to offset the blue, or even possibly a complete colour change to this blood red for seats and side panels, black dash and because I'm not a fan of black carpet either, that grey square weave. Basically like this but with the light carpet and head liner.

But maybe that'd be a bit schizophrenic with the blue exterior. And the red and blue is a pretty bold statement; I'm not quite sure I'm ready for that...







On this car...

Kevin, our cars are similar and all I can say about the red seats is, "Do it!". My car is prussian blue w/ dark blue interior. Many times I have wondered what my car would look like with red seats to offset all the blue. -J

You need someone to be the guinea pig...?

I think it would probably look good. I'm not a huge fan of red interiors, but I saw new Beemer on the lot that was dark blue with a dark red interior. It looked pretty good, thus my interest in doing that with mine. I never would have considered it without seeing an example to get my mind thinking outside the box a little...

More square weave on a Singer car, though not with all black, but some tan...

Thanks.
