While I think both will work, my Verona has salt and pepper and looks awesome IMO. I'm a big fan of salt and pepper.

Many colors work with Verona - easy to get creative here.

Don't make a black hole out of your car.

Early Verona cars generally (maybe all?) came with a black interior and salt & pepper carpet. Pretty much all early cars came with a S & P carpet.

I have a black carpet set (unknown source) in the Beater (orig Verona), tempered with charcoal foot mats. I think it looks ok.

I have an Esty's grey carpet set in my dark metallic blue car. This also look good to me.

Beware.......the black carpet will show every speck of dirt/dust, and piece of lint etc.

+ 3 on the black carpet making the interior a black hole.

I put black carpet in the yellow car and have regretted it. The salt and pepper or gray certainly makes the seats and other trim pop.
