Default Lloyd's ultimat matching color for cardamom - not quite

I ordered 8 color samples to match the carpets in my 2013 Audi Q7 and it appears I did not choose wisely. I hope this will help others that want to order replacement mats. If I had to guess what color would match the factory mats, it would be Bahama Beige 645


Lloyd Ultimat colors for Cardamom

Lloyd's colors for the Ultimat line are here.

In case you wanted a contrasting color, I put these next samples on the seats so you could see a comparison. 630 is the closest match to Cardamom.




Lloyds Ultimats against Cardamom seats

And finally, the light trim inset on the door is a fairly close match to 605 Light Shale.

If anyone else gets Lloyd's replacement mats for their Audi, please post the best color match.

I was looking for aftermarket floor mats for 3 major reasons
  1. Cost - the dealer mats are 2x as much as Lloyds
  2. Availability - when I bought my CPO, the dealer wasn't able to find a matching set of mats in inventory, so I was looking at other options
  3. Quality - I've owned Ultimats before for another car, and I've found they are higher quality and last longer than OEM mats

Do not purchase from dealer, they'll mark it up an additional 10% over list. Also if they do not have in stock they can order usually have it by 1pm next day depending on location of their warehouse. These are the part numbers for the OEM mats:

Front:
4L1863691CL57

Rear:
4L0864450L57

*cross-reference before committing to any order. i am not responsible for any errors in purchase.
