carpet color on white door panels ?

[35chevcoupe]

Hey all .   My understanding is that with white door panels the carpet color on them should be grey but I tried ordering them today from Legendary and they say the only color they show on them is black and that they don't have ANY grey carpet . Suggestions anyone ?

Legendary wrong no! How could that be!? I ordered the door panels without carpet from them which are non returnable! They seem to think the parachment or off white is correct! Not the frost white! Which it should be! I would get a sample from them and make sure it is correct ! Otherwise you might end up with over $500 in wrong color junk door panels like me!

They made mine with gray carpet. Maybe try talking with someone else at Legendary. Gray is correct.

My door panel carpet inserts are gray also.

You are welcome to stop over and take a look at mine when you have the time.

As I'm sure you remember my car is the white on white hardtop John Egle wife trophies with at GSCA and BCA events.

My Pole Barn is dry and heated.

Hi ,we had no trouble ordering the white interior for our 65 but are inthe mdle other 37 week wait they said all that was needed was the upper sheet metal for the door panels. They just called for the metalnail strips on the edge of the door panels thought I could save my old panels but now have to take them further apar
t to get the nail strip off.Jim

Mine are also white ordered from Legendary with gray inserts. They also sent the gray kick panel carpet as ordered when I purchased the door panels. Might just be talking to the wrong person on their end.

Thanks again for your help guys .  I just got off the phone with Rick from legendary and had him put my order on hold ! I'm having him send me a color sample of the white they use for our seats and door panels before i continue my order .
Then I told him the carpet on the door panels, floor and kick panels was charcoal grey and he said that they don,t have grey and would just leave the carpet OFF and I could have someone  sew it  on somewhere else .  I told him that MANY of the guys I know that ordered these door panels from them got grey carpet so NOW he's checking into it .
AND he said its about a 8 month wait time to get them .
Jim , why did they need parts off your original door panels ? I thought these were all new parts, he never mentioned anything to me about sending in any of my old parts except for the stainless trim and the door emblem, in which I will be installing myself at this point .

As Jim said, my 65 GS convertible is the cover car on their Buick catalogue and has white interior with gray carpet on the door panels. Admittedly the door panels were done in 2012 but ……
