Edge with carpet

I want to replace the vinyl floor in my edge with carpet, but I'm really unsure what color would look the best. If anyone has done this to an edge with the dark grey interior post some pics and help me decide.

I'm in the same boat, so I'll be curious to hear what you decide. Just go on ebay and buy a charcoal gray carpet. http://motors.search.ebay.com/ranger...nQQsacatZ33694

I got a few color samples from stockinteriors.com, but it didnt help me decide much. There are two places where carpet is in the truck and thats the flap on the sides of the seats that cover the seat tracks and the rear jump seats. Oddly enough they are totally different shades of grey. Maybe i should find and explorer with grey interior and match it up with that carpet.

I thought about putting carpet in my truck, but I have new vinyl thanks to my local dealership setting my floormats on fire and melting and them and my floor. I figured since I have new flooring there isn't much point in replacing it. If you do it post some pics., I would like to see how it looks.

How the hell did they light your floor mats on fire?

I had some rust on the pieces the front fenders attach to and they didn'y put down a drop cloth when they were welding I still have my melted mat but they bought me some nice new one and gave me a new floor. They were real pain in the butts the whole time. they told me a week, it ended up being like 26 days. IF you live in West Palm Beach, FL DO NOT go to Al packer Ford East for any work.

I ordered Neon Blue carpet with the Mass Back option from www.stockinteriors.com last week. Should be here on monday and will go in this week.

I just wanted to add some more color to the interior and get rid of the vinyl cutouts for the rear jump seats.

I mean, it was great when I was in WI and the snow got in it and the salt, and I was doing alot of mudding. Now I just mainly get to and from work and go to shows. So it isn't really serving my purpose like it once did.
