Default Interior Question

I want to order some floor mats and other items for my interior and assumed it was dark grey but one of my friends said it was graphite? I bought the car used and don't have the original sticker so how do I know which one it is? Is there a website that can decode the vin#?

I think on the 98s it was called graphite.... I know on the 01-02s it was called ebony and is darker than the 98s

If you have a graphite interior you will have to buy mats from one of the companies that use GM interior colors if you want it to match. I have the same interior and no store bought mats will ever match worth a crap. My mats cost $100 and I had the trans am logo embroidered on them. I know they are expensive but it is due in part to the licensing, the Generals got to get his money too! Anything plastic can be painted with interior paint, I got some for my a plr pod and it was a pretty close match but not perfect. What kind of stuff are you looking for??

I noticed that the grey actually looks grey (lighter colored). The graphite looks like a dark grey. And the newest (01-02) is ebony, basically black.

I was able to find a website that had the brochure from '98 and it looks like they offered interior in white, dark gray, neutral and flame red. So I'm guessing mine is dark gray. Check out the link.
