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

I was editing while you posted. If you have black leather then its soul, not swing.

I have some mid-grey front mats that I got a while back, possibly from The Laird, that have seen little use in practice and I could let go.
Let me know what you decide you need, though I think these are more Platinum.....

I got my music style/dance names confused there! Do the colour names all have musical references? Soul? swing? twist?
