Default Interior carpet colours

Trying to determine if there were multiple colours of carpet in a 940 Estate and whether a grey interior'd boot carpets match with a black one, any ideas?

Thanks sir. So this grey carpet would be the same as the carpet from a grey-plasticed car hopefully

It should be. The carpets in my black doorcard car are more dark grey than black. I got some interior parts from a grey plastic car and they were much lighter so didn't match

It looks as though there is potential for it to be more complicated than so far suggested. For example, there is grey and light grey. I expect there may have been unintentional variations over the years too.

You got some carpet pieces and they didn't match? That's annoying same situation I'm trying to avoid.

That's great thank you. Another piece of the puzzle

I still have them in my garage. I'll take some pics if you like as they might match yours depending on what you are after

I think I've got grey boot trim too but see what Mark has first, mine is in a mates lockup so I don't have easy access to it.
