i just unpacked my classic industries loop carpet and guess what, it sucks ... it it damaged but even if it wasnt, this antique design , the low quality, overall looks just make me puke. hey, why is there no puke smiley ?
anyways, where can i get for my 1971 nova a high quality, premolded, carpet ? you know, like the one i have in my benzo. nice, smooth, not big rough loops, but smooth like mercedes velour floormats ...
please advise, thanks.
OK, another thing : did ii do the wrong thing ordering the loop style and i should have ordered cut pile ? is cut file comparable to a mercedes carpet ?

loop is what was offered from the factory. I think you ordered the stuff for a restoration. I ordered the same stuff and it works fine for me. But if you wanted a different style of carpet, you probably should have went custom. I don't know of anyone that makes molded "Mercedes" type carpet. But an upholstery shop would be my 1st stop.

wilton wool was the material suggested recently for high quality carpeting like one would find in a luxuray cars. It can be found at http://www.newportupholstery.com. Hope that helps.

We use real wool carpeting in our cars - it feels and looks really nice. We'll likely offer it for the applications we support. We also use suede headliners - actually in ultrasuede.
