Exclamation Simple but needed. New Floormats..Switched from Grey to Black

Well my floormats were in horrible shape. Since my car is black, I figure why not go with black floormats this time.

Sewell has a hellified deal on floormats so I jumped on it.

Not even sure if this needs a thread but what the heck.
Yuck, the difference is insane. P.S don't spill oil, curry and jerk sauce on your floor mats.

My previous GS was PDW/Black interior. I'm starting to miss black.

Looks good Mike! I did the same for my ES a while back, they really spruce up the lighter colored interior a lot. Oh and they do hide stains much better as well.

I changed the floormats to black in both my cars the next day after getting them home. I don't understand the logic of putting light colored mats in any car. THEY GET DIRTY QUICK!

I would give them away but IMO, they are in horrible shape, it wouldn't be right. I figure I'll use them to put under my back when I am under the car for oil changes etc...
