What color carpet, and what's up with my sun visor?

I'm going to order new carpet for my Z28 from StockInteriors.com. Has anyone ordered from there? I was just wondering what color I should get.

Also, my driver's side sun visor fell off a couple days ago. Then, I noticed one of the three screws ,that hold that little trim piece, was missing. Is that why it fell off?

That's all, thank you!

Black, and yes...those 3 screws hold in your visor. I just dyed my original stained carpet for 8 bucks worth of dye....

If you want REALLY nice carpet, look at F-bodycarpet.com

They have the best carpet on the market. I went with the 1097 dark grey for my car and love it.

Dang, that carpet is more than twice as much as the carpet I was going to buy.

Wow, impressive. F-bodycarpet has the first aftermarket floor mats I've seen that is actually cut to fit similar to the stock ones. Most are just rectangular and look like crap. I have floormats in my Corolla that don't fit perfect, and I gotta tell ya... it's annoying as hell.

I have project car dreams to fulfill someday, so now I know where I'll be buying my floormats if not carpet as well... thanks for the link tireburnin

I got that carpet because I was eliminating my rear seats and didn't want holes and I was adding the cage. When you see the carpet in person, you realize you got every penny's worth of the price. It is so thick, you can stand a quarter up in it.

I'm actually selling my brand new floor mats from that site because I never use them. My car has become more of a track only car, so I never have them in the car. They are brand new and have just sat in the box for almost 2 years.

I test fit them in the car after installing the carpet, and they are awesome. Tons of coverage and quality embriodery/

I know the OP has probably made his decision but here you go...before:

after:

done w/ a spray bottle and some black dye....8 dollars total worth of dye...and it is guaranteed to fit!
(I am going to make a thread here soon...I re-did all of the light grey interior and made everything black..leather seats/headliner included)
