Carpet Colour

Post by Volvo 360 GL B200K »

After removing the dark grey carpet from my ex V340 1.7, and removing the caret from my newly aquired B200E, GLT which has a light grey carpet, I have decided to clean up the dark grey floor and to put it into the GLT, as i feel that the dark carpet will match the dark black, with grey piped GLT seats!

Any Thoughts - Opinions...?

Oooo, you have a new GLT now?

Good idea for the DARK carpet because it was the "standard" choice made by Volvo for the most 360's GLT. I only saw GLT models with a dark grey carpet (it was so in my ex GLT), the combination is beautiful with the seats and door panels.

What's the colour of your car; light?

Here's a comparison of the carpet colours, with the lighter grey original GLT carpet on the left, GLT rear seat (base) in the middle and the 1.7 darker grey carpet on the right! The dark grey carpet is going into the GLT, as i think the colour match and combination is better!

Oops, the word "dark" was missing in my previous message.

Yep the combination is better and as I said I only saw in my life GLT models with the dark gray carpet.

Soooooo, can we see pictures of your new car? :P
