Default Car Mats

Can anyone suggest somewhere that would sell new A8/S8 car mats in the original Audi colours?

I'm hesitating to ask if Audi dealers would still be able to source them so is there a third party who could get a decent colour match?

Next question, how do I tell what interior colour my car is?!

Thanks.

What's the car? You occasionally see them on ebay through Audi dealers, particularly for D3s.

And the build sticker is the source for your interior colour. Put a search in on this forum; there's loads of stuff on the build sticker and how to decode it.

Inside the service book front cover, post here in full the 2 lines of codes in larger type above the big list of codes in small type.
It's the end of line 2 - mine is N5D/WJ which is Valcona/twist beige

I've had this problem before, i'm pretty certain it's not Aqua. Dolphin Grey is correct but the interior is definitely dark grey/platinum in colour. Certainly not blue. I might post a photo for reference.

Thanks for checking.
