B pillars should be blue/grey and the boot vinyl black.

I asked this a while ago as my black GSi had a black boot vinyl and grey door pillar ones when I got it. Now got a genuine boot vinyl to fit after the respray but its the same colour as the door pillars so not sure whether its right or not.

There must be 2 shades for the boot vinyl.

My original was black, but the genuine replacement is grey (which I prefer). Mines flame Red though.

Id agree with this, i very much doubt there was a set rule for black GSi's and one for all the others.

Black was an option on GSi's though was it not? but a standard SRi colour?? Then is there a slim chance that some black GSi's were painted and decaled with the SRi's???

Obviously without being in spain at that particular time, and also not knowing 100% whether im talking balls about black being a standard SRi colour, I could be, and probably am, completely wrong.

The black in the GSi was Diamond Black metallic, whereas the SR/SRi was just a flat black.:thumb: ;)

But I'd agree with you, the fitter probably just stuck on whatever fell into their hand first!!!
