Have never seen a standard black carpet in a nova. All GSi's had black dashes.

2 Greys, brown, blue, and red. As far as I'm aware thats it.

carpets not actgually black its very dark grey - I have it in mine.

The standard mk2's had grey carpet. Highwer spec had dark grey.

Dont think you can dye it properly as its polyester based so wont really absorb the dye.

Know someone who sprayed it once!

:o

weird!

speak to an upholseter they can advise of best dye to use (if any)

is there no way u can tak out your old carpet and draw round it onto a carpet (colour) you want? or will it be hard to get it to shape the inner arch next to the foot wells?
