It's important to get a lot of samples. I got all the blacks and grays to get a perfect match.

Also have to look at them in bright daylight for a high cri light source and not in your garage.

Roll it up and stick it in the funk when you need the seats up.

Mine came with a set of matching graphite blue floor mats. Where about did you purchase yours? Shouldn't the floor mats be standard equipped?

I would purchase a complimentary color from cocoamats. I have a natural color mats with my black interior/dark blue metallic exterior and like it...it lightens the interior up a bit. I think navy mats would look nice with graphite, or gray, if they have either of those colors.

Thanks for the notes on Graphite Blue color from Lloyds. I will order samples before doing anything else.

As mentioned above, I do have floor mats -- just had them out of the car for cleaning at the time of the photo.

Just wanted to follow-up.

Samples of Lloyd's Ultimat options are here -- asked for both blues and grays to compare with my Graphite Blue and Chalk interior, with Sport-Tex. Took a bunch of photos. Here's a are a couple of the more representative, compared to the OEM footwell mats (brightness-adjusted by the camera) and the folded down rear seat (ambient outdoor indirect light).

A couple notes:
* One of the samples (#125) doesn't seem to have any reference online that I could find.
* One of the samples is labeled with two numbers, "340 350" -- which corresponds to G. Blue.

Haven't made a decision about whether to get any of them, let alone which one, yet.

#340 G Blue is the one I got and as you can see...not good! Really none of those look very good. I wonder if there is a Chalk to match the seats but it's probably stupid to get such light color floor matts. I'm living with the G Blue but it bugs me. Maybe I'll just go back to the stock ones.

Yeah. After sleeping on it, none of them look good.

No Lloyds Ultimats for me. Will keep an eye out for other colors/options in the future.
