Mats
Thinking of getting a new set of mats, as far as I know original/genuine ones are no longer available. I would like to get as close to original colour (swing I think, dark grey) and quality as originals. Anyone recommend any suppliers please. Or better still if anyone knows a source for original/genuine that would be even better
thanks

For the RS6 obviously Brian, because the S8 is exclusively black?

Swing is , well, beige😄 or understated sophistication as described in the literature. Surely black rubber ones from Halfords are ok for any black car?😁

Swing is dark grey. Beige is twist. Black is soul.
Bizarrely, my 3.7 is twist, and it came with a set of genuine unobtanium soul mats! Go figure Last edited by MikkiJayne; 4th May 2019 at 08:42 PM. |

Its the same code as the interior. Soul black is WK.
I made a few corrections further up ^^ Swing is indeed dark grey - grey leather and grey carpets. Soul is black - black leather, but the carpets are more a charcoal colour. A few shades darker than swing, but not entirely black either. Last edited by MikkiJayne; 4th May 2019 at 08:49 PM. |
