Carpet on the lower door panels is stock, however when I dyed the door panels, it darkened up a bit, which matches the upper dash and the upper window moldings. No plans to change as it all blends very nicely. Forgot to mention, but I did have the left side bolster of the driver's seat repaired. Scrap grey leather from the back seat of a 93 LS400 ($3 at junk yard). Trim shop charged me $75 to dismantle, and stitch in new piece. Now that it is dyed with the rest of the seat, you'd never know.

So far so good. The lower door carpet is a little hard, but then again that was done with SEM.

Overall nice job. So how did you mix the Rit Dye from Walmart? Did you let sit overnight, then rinsed, or ????? I am curious of how you did this compared to the way I did it.
