Carpet Color

I'm thinking about getting new carpet. Truck is black, Interior is all black, with a red seat.
What do you all think, black or red carpet?

I can't really find any pictures of red carpet, with black dash, doors, dash pad, and red seat.

Black shows up dirt and debris more, so I would go with red.

Only thing red is the seat, and yes, it's going to stay red.

I vote red with black mats. But add some more red somewhere. Dye the headliner, visors, or door trim panels.
