Floor mats way wrong color! Please help!
 

I ordered some grey premium floor mats that are the correct ones that match my vin, but when I put them in, they are way lighter almost white looking in comparison.

you can see from the picture that the border around the carpet is the correct color grey, and then the carpet is way light.

I checked the beige colored ones at another dealer and the border matched the inner carpet, which to me tells me they messed up.

The dealer i ordered them looked into the wrong color by checking with the manufacturer, but they said they could not do anything since they were discontinued, but the manufacture still sells them.

I really want these floor mats, Ive seen the correct color ones before offered used and am wondering why the manufacturer messed up on the color.

If the vender won't exchange them, you'll have to order the used set and sell the lite grey ones

I'm returning the light grey ones, no problem.

But what would I exchange them with, that's apparently all they have.

Does anyone have these in your car with the right color with some numbers I could use to get the correct ones???

And its not a vendor is the dealer and they spoke to the manufacturer.

and I don't know where I can get a used set in good condition?

Ok, quick update. apparently after phone call and long hold.
there still might be hope...
they have been sending the cashmere color instead of grey but marking it as grey.
so I'm going to see if i can order the right ones today!

Chin up, it could be all resolved in a few days!

No luck so far, everything is cashmere.

Nevermind, there is a cashmere color, grey color, and ebony color.

The grey I ordered is all you can get and it's way off. Any help is appreciated.

Second link doesn't work, but I'll have to email or call that first company to have them check the color first. Cause I've heard they are all the wrong grey from the manufacture due to an incorrect carpet sample from gm.

I always wondered what they meant by "cashmere" I keep seeing that color listed in the books, but Ive never seen it listed as a factory option interior color. I wonder if it's actually for another car like a Cobalt or Malibu?

I deleted the second link!

The original Chevrolet HHR sales brochure available from the dealers, list Cashmere as one of the interior color choices.
At least it is in the 2010 HHR brochure.

Do they also list backup camera?
LOL

I should have left off "listed as a factory option".
I've just never seen any color other than grey or black or charcoal. Maybe cashmere is with the leather package? I've never looked at a leather equipped HHR.

I think he now has been given great advice. And has all the choices he can make.
So this doesn't become redundant, It's time to close this thread!

Mine has factory leather, and as far as I know, I can't get the right color mats at this time do to a manufacturing error. :(

I guess aftermarket is the only way to go. :(
