Default Original floormat color

Maybe someone out there has original floor mats.. My interior is Linen and I assume the carpet color is called linen also? I want to buy a set of mats that match the carpet but I can only find a set in " beige". I don't picture beige as being a match with linen. Does anyone have color-matched floor mats in a Linen interior?

It seems that the popular Lloyd mats are never an exact match. Like you, I've wondered, if there is anything closer. In my case, it would be classic grey.

Thanks Randy,

I checked the site but I don't see a color that looks like a match for my car. I wish they had a cross reference chart for what porsche-named colors match color names the mat manufacturers use.
I'll go with my best guess and if they aren't a good match well hey, they don't last forever anyway.

At Jeanie's (sp) suggestion I sent a small sample of my original mats from a non faded area. She will try to match up to a Lloyds color. I think otherwise selecting from the images on the net is a bit of a gamble.
