^ lol you dont see two sets of carpets in the vehicle?

2 tone has been done already on 3 gs' i've seen on this site.

Should have cleaned your oem carpet and put it back in.OR get the cross stitch done on the carpet.. the seats are fresh, and your carpet would look fresh too.

should've been a boss!

It looks good IMO. It just sucks that the tan inteiors have the dark gray on top of the panels. If you were to do a BMW style interior (black bottom where it matters as to not show dirt) and color on top it would look stupid with tan, gray and black. If the interior were uniform in color like tan, a black bottom half/two tone would look phenomenal!
