Default Vert convertible boot question

I have 99 SS but it does not have the convertible boot. My interior is grey. What color should my boot be? I can buy a dark almost black one off of a 02 but just wondering if I should hold off.

Grey or black are a dime a dozen. Just be thankful you are not looking for a tan one.

No way, I see the tan ones on ebay sometimes and they're always much cheaper than the gray ones.

do a search on ebay for the following text and you'll find one soon enough, though there's only a tan one on there right now. Oh and I think black int. comes with gray boot, don't think there's a black boot.
search ebay for:
(z28,camaro,comaro,camero,cemaro,cemero,comaro,com ero,firebird,transam,tranzam,trans,tranz,ta,fireha wk,ls1,ss,z28) (convertible,convertable) (boot,cover,guard,covers,boots,guards,parade)

I believe grey was the correct color boot for Camaro and Firebird up through 1999. Black was correct color for 2000-2002. Except for the tan ones.

Oh and I would say, unless your car is a toy only garage keeper, don't worry about it. The cover ends up being more hassle than it's worth. Takes up the whole trunk, can kinda rattle/squeaks when on, blah blah blah.

But, I guess they should get harder and harder to find so if you want to keep your car complete might as well grab it while you can. Wrong time of year to be buying one though. Bid prices go up considerably at this time of the year. Fall in late autumn and through winter.
