Black or Grey Weathertech for Grey Interior DC?

I have a 2005 Silver Mica DC with Grey Interior. I can't decide on the black weathertech mats or the grey ones?

What do you guys think? Also, Are the rear weathertechs for the DC worth it for the extra $60+ bucks?

You can see pics of both the black and the grey in this thread:

I have black oem all weather and I like the contrast, ive seen a few people complain about the gray ones looking dirty. As far as the rears go you will be happy the first time your uncaring buddys hop in the back with dirty muddy feet.

I have the front grey ones and really like them. I would think black would be tougher to keep clean.

short run black would be tougher to clean, long run grey will stain and be tougher if not impossible to clean perfectly.

Black. Easy to keep clean if you have a hose and a brush. Check my CarDomain for some pics of them installed in my Taco.

The grey matches perfectly and they do not stain. I have had mine for a year and they clean off very easily. Depending on where you live, different things will show up worse on either color. I live in Cincinnati where the put down road salt like that are tring to cure the asphalt like a peice of ham. I've had black rubber mats before and they look horrible from december to march. That is why I say, get GREY!

I put the black ones in my Access cab and like the way it looks. I guess that make it 5 black and 2 grey.

Go with the black. They are easy to clean (I had grey and they stained with black road grease). I live on the prairies, and we see a lot of salt... Still, the mats were immaculate every Spring, Summer, Fall. One other key thing... I have a nice black truck. I've noticed that on silver, or even speedway blue trucks the factory tint looks darker - because our light grey interiors reflect soooo much light. I noticed putting black mats in helped reduce interior light/brightness. May not be a big thing, but everything I can do to make the interior darker helps...

i have some dark grey mats like the color of the dashboard and its matches perfect and looks great. You have nothing else black inside the truck so why would you put black floormats?

I have the fabic TRD mats right now that are black, and they dont look bad. Looks like people are divided between the grey and black.
