Re: Red Carpet
This doesn't show much, but I can take more if you identify the area you're interested in seeing.

Thanks and nice car. Your photo helped. My car is black and everything on the inside is black. I am planning of replacing the carpet soon and not sure if I want to put in black or replace the grayish color that is in there. I am actually thing of going with red or another color just to give the interior some contrast. Do you happen to have a photo that shows more of the front area? If not dont worry about it.

Re: Red Carpet
Thanks. Here's a wider shot for you, with the rubber protective mat removed. They need a good cleaning, but you can see the true colour where the mat was. They're original so I can't tell where you could duplicate this colour. It's very close to Guard's Red - much brighter than the exterior paint.

Re: Red Carpet
Kilrwail,
Thanks once again. That is perfect. I think I might be going with the red carpet.

Re: Red Carpet
Kilrwail,
You have a red horn button! Is that that stock? I had assumed they were all yellow/gold since mine, manoa matt's and a parts car I looked at were all the same color

Re: Red Carpet
My ears' are burning, someone talking about my horn button? I think Kirail's camera does not have red-eye reduction.
A very red/unfaded and uncracked early horn button is as rare as hen's teeth, been looking for one for years.

Re: Red Carpet
That car out in waimanalo has a yellow uncracked button, BUT it is foggy as hell. You can barely see through itmanoa matt wrote:My ears' are burning, someone talking about my horn button? I think Kirail's camera does not have red-eye reduction.

Were there only two colors of horn buttons installed? Or did they match the stock paint color?

Re: Red Carpet
It's red, uncracked, unfaded and original. It hasn't been parked out in the sun very much.

Re: Red Carpet
If the plastic itself is foggy then it can be buffed out to restore the shine, I did that to my last one. If the red inter layer is faded, not much you can do.
