Lets go with the Brown Marble flooring like it used to have

How much is this costing us?

May I have a say in the floor color? I'd like a black floor, without aisle trim, please. :) Unless you'd rather it be restored to original specifications, the tan floor isn't a problem, but I'd prefer a black floor.

Why Black?

I would rather it be restored back to brown for a couple reasons...
1) To fit the bus it is modeled after
2) Two of our AAREs have black, 2 (including this bus) have brown...thus letting drivers choose their bus with the specs they want
3) The Brown floor makes it a bit different than the other buses...just something that stands out.

If you want a black floor, you can take 19301...

I'm going for low cost, yet durable. I'll be installing rubber aisle trim. Sam the interior flooring project of this bus should cost no more than $300.
