Default Does anybody make a GOOD fitting molded carpet? Tried ACC...

So I've had ACC brand in two of my cars.....both times it fit like COMPLETE crap.....I'll never buy from them again.

I haven't been able to find anybody else that sells a molded carpet set in many colors.

Does anybody know of any companies? Maybe I'll have to break down and just have it custom installed.

TIA.

Jon, I know a guy in McKinney that used to do custom carpets and interiors for pretty good prices. I'll see if I can get his number for you.

Red.

If I was going black, I'd go OEM....even if it is $300.

Has anybody used the JCWhitney carpet? I've thought about it, but I'm afraid it might fit as bad as the ACC brand....ACC is supposed to be one of the better brands out there. What a complete disappointment!

Brandon, just let me know if you can find that guys #....I've got my interior stripped out ready to get new carpet and a stereo install done

Here's a pic of the ACC in my '91 Si....look closely around all the edges, they couldn't ever get it all to lay flat, and that was a professional installation.

That's what you get for putting a red carpet in your car.

i'm pretty satisfied with my black carpet from acc - it's certainly not perfect, but if you have patience and a sharp knife & scissors, you can make it work. they're around $200 too, btw. i had a harder time because my original carpet was water damaged, so i tossed it before the new one came in. cutting the holes for the seats & the shifter was a pita.

I think the only way to go is to have some one put it in -----or thinkin of doing the whole bed liner stuff but worried about what it looks like, weight and wires that flow through the cabin

Lol, alright dude. You got me!

I personally think red/black interior looks good. I believe Honda does too, as they've produced cars with that interior combo.
