Default Hey Guys! Brand New Member W/ 03 SS

Hey guys! I just bought a black 03 SS. This is really only my second car (I'm 22). I've been driving a 97 Camry for the past 5 years or so, so this is certainly an upgrade!:p
It has about 75,500 miles, and I paid $7,495. Good deal?

Anyway, the car only came with one floor mat, so I've been looking here and on Google for some sites that sell replacements. I haven't really found many sites that sell the same original ones that come with the car, just custom ones. Do you guys recommend getting the originals or some custom ones? Another thing I'm not 100% sure of is which color to get. I'm gonna post some pictures and hopefully some more experienced eyes can help me out.

I haven't taken any pics myself yet, so I'm gonna post the ones from the dealer.

Also, any other suggestions for a newbie owner?

Thanks a lot for the help guys!

Welcome!

Your interior is Ebony (its almost black, but if you buy black mats, they will not match). I bought some custom mats from the floor mat guys online. They are good quality, and match the OEM cut, so they fit perfectly. Also, I am pretty sure you can get OEM mats from GM Parts Direct, however, their customer service sucks, and be prepaired to wait for a LONG time to get your shippment.

Nice Monte!

Moradpartscompany.com ask Eric if they have any mats.

Also... can I have your car?
