Any ideas what colour carpets I should put in my car? The car's White with tan leather , and at the minute green carpets , I'm thinking to go for black carpets, but black doesn't really go with tan, and green doesn't go with White , or tan!

Black sounds like a good bet and a good contrast against the White. It will also help to highlight the interior colour.

Guinness seemed to have done alright with black and tan!
Black or a very bark brown would be my choice

A picture may help?

How about a dark chocolate brown - contrasts nicely with the tan whilst being from the same colour family?

Looking at most of the pictures of tan interiors though, black seems to be the colour of choice to go with it.

Have you thought about putting in Tan colour carpet? Sometimes better not to introduce too many colours, can get a bit hectic.

Just a thought..... smile

Maroon could work I think? I thought about tan carpets but I think it would maybe be an overkill. Black or maroon, maybe I should get a few samples and offer them up and see how they look against the interior and bodywork

I'd go for the slightly darker tan or black option. Maroon!

What about something like this instead??

Maroon is a bright, rich, deep, or dark red color, depending on which tone of maroon is in question; could be purplish in color... Yes this is a very good colour contrast Mr Demondad, unlike the maroon corduroy slippers you wear, YEAH BABY!! (joke BTW)

White could end up looking very grubby over the years...
