Rubber boot mat

I am ordering the OEM rubber boot mat. I have standard anthracite interior. What color boot mat should I be ordering - gray, or black? I can't decide if my interior is closer to gray or closer to black!

I would go with black so that it doesn't look dirty as fast as the gray would.

Black never goes out of style.
The boot is as far as you can get from the anthracite interior anyway.

Besides, wasn't there a MINI ad - "Small is the new black"?

I have an anthracite interior but I chose a gray mat to make the boot interior less dark. Black is a closer color match but gray also looks good in a two-tone sort of way, and does not look out of place. I also happen to think that gray hides dirt and scuffs far better than black.

I've got anthracite interior and black boot mat as well and looks great. Think it comes down to your own preference.

I have anthracite interior on my DS MCSC and I have a black boot mat . It matches the floor mats as well.

I have the Red Tarten interior and I went with Black. You won't regret getting the boot mat. It is a nice feature.
