I have have a 1990s Cabriolet with black carpets but I fancy some original beige carpets were changed. I've no details of the  original car's spec but could there be any code number on any chassis plate which tells me what colour original carpets were? 

 

Regards

Hello Nigel,

What would be your route to acquiring a beige carpet for the car, if you could find a colour code? 
Finding a carpet in useable condition for a 30 year old car would be a bit of an ask - in my opinion.

Getting one made and moulded would likely cost 2 arms and 2 legs. 
 

Alternative:-why not fit tailored beige overmats over your black carpet? You should find plenty of sellers on eBay offering variations on carpet quality and edge sewing choices.

Please let us know what you think Nigel.

Kind regards,

Gareth.

Gareth, its a good answer , but sadly my needs are different. I'm trying to find out if the newer carpets in this car are the same colour as the priginal

Nigel, I’m not attempting to find answers, simply because I (and possibly other forum members) did not know the precise reason for the question. 

Is it somewhat purist to ascertain whether a later variant ( if the same fit) of beige is the same shade as what may have been fitted to your model - but of course wasn’t, since yours was fitted with black carpet? 

Still rather confusing, but….

Sorry   but I have no idea what your recent message is trying to say.  Turning to my original post I am merely asking if any kind of chassis plate may tell me what the original carpet's colour was. I know the current ones are not the original carpets.
