Interior Colors for Silver 2006 SLE Conv

OEM Floor Mats Price

Postby linkgregory » Wed Jan 23, 2008 7:56 am

All of my local stealerships were quoting me $98 -$105. I went online and ordered from Frank Motors in National City, CA. Theirs were $76 + $12 for S&H, so $88 total.
AND, when I wasn't happy with the match, they said they would take back the "Dark Stone" and give me the "Charcoal".
Some of the other online sellers clearly state that they are not responsible if you don't get the color right!

But the point is, that's not the color that Toyota says the interior is. Mine is Dark Stone, not charcoal. I don't care too much, so I'm not flipping about it, it's the point that the colors don't match. If my car is really charcoal, then it needs to say that.

I paid about $100 for my mats...the thing that sucks is that I really only needed a driver's side one, but of course you have to get all 4.

Jerry - drag the dealershit asswipe out to your car and shove his face inside and demand that they give you a free replacement!!

If your car color code says that the interior is dark stone and that comes in looking like silver, but charcoal is the correct re-order color, then that's what they should be giving you!!

If your interior is dark stone, buy charcoal mats

PXLpainter was right. I just got the replacement charcoal colored mats and they match the dark stone interior. What a major headache this has been!

2006 SLE floormats

The original factory floor mats on my 2006 SLE convertible (with dark stone interior) are much lighter than the carpets.

Toyota went color blind on all floormat colors. The only ones that match is using charcoal matts in a dark stone car. Beige and charcoal are screwed trying to get OEM colors that match the carpet.

Sorry if this is new to you, but has been discussed here on a few threads in great length.
