Red or black carpet ??

[papabug71]

What do you guys think ?? I cant make up my mind..... The cab has red, but also black. The original mat is black with red speckels in it. At least it use to be.

I think your just going to have to flip a coin :dk:but take a look at 427blackpearl truck hes got black paint with red interior and red carpet looks nice,i seen it on somebodys post of covering a seat.

[Joe Kriston]

Most definitely red....

That's a hard decision.
I'd say it's perfect how you have it! Black mat with red floor mat's look just right in there.
I would probaby go with black though, because it would hide dirt alot better and red might be a little too much.It's hard to say!

I say black carpet because with those floor mats and the seats it would add a nice contrast. Plus black hides dirt and stains better.

my truck is red inside and out. and it looks fine like that with red carpet. maybe you could photoshop red in that picture and see what you think. i want to say red but im not sure it would look right. but black doesnt look right either with the mat.

[papabug71]

Its soo hard to decide. I like the way f100builders red carpet looks, but I think black would look good with my old floor mats.

Im gonna flip a coin.....

I say red and get black mats for best contrast. Just my

Just don't use a two headed coin I think black with the floor mats you have in there would look fine.

My uncle has a 79 F100 flare side thats black with all red interior. I always thought that was the best looking interior i had ever seen (and still do). Red seat, carpet, dash, headline and door panels. So my vote would be red fo sho.

[fordman]

if you could find it. or have it special made. ha ha. what abotu a black and red checked flag look to it? just in the frotn floors though. not the whole thing. and then the rest all red.

BLACK! BLACK! BLACK! BLACK! BLACK! BLACK! BLACK!
I think black carpet with red floormats, or floormats that have red on them would look best, like what you have looks good. I think if you went with red carpet, it would be too much red and kindy overwhelm the interior. The red vs. black color mixture would be more balanced if you have black carpet. PLUS black hides the dirt and stains a little better.
