Default Is this a factory decklid mat?

I've been wondering for a long time if this was a factory mat. Only reason I ask is because I've never seen one in this color, and I just get the idea that GM wouldn't have put one in that color because it's not to great looking IMO. Car's an 02 NBM SS, has factory ss floor mats, but I just don't know if this one is original to the car since I've never seen one this color before.

It looks to me like maybe it's an original that got some bleach spilled on it or something? I mean, other than the color, it looks right. Looks blue to me in the pic, can't imagine why they would make one that color...

I'm gonna guess that Yes, it probably is an original SLP issued SS deck mat.
The SLP mats are known for fading.
I've got two 10th Ann'y Firehawk mats that are starting to look like that.

But since I'm not an SS owner, I can't be sure that it's the "Camaro SS" layout that they used.
Maybe another SS owner can verify that it's the right layout style.
If someone does, then yea, I'd say it's a faded SLP mat.

The faded thing works into it then, cause the car has no tint whatsoever on any windows or defrosters so I guess it's been in direct sunlight its entire life.

Alright, thanks.
