Never heard of them until you posted the name. I'll be a guinea pig. I just ordered the passenger ($114.95) and rear hatch ($119.95) carpet in black. Shipping to Oklahoma was a whopping $44.95 for a total charged to my little plastic enemy of $279.85.
It will go in my son's 1991 Firebird. I'll let you know how it goes if you're interested.

i've used them. the carpet fit nice. it does have to be trimmed to fit though. the color shade was right on. although i did have samples mailed to me before i ordered. the samples are free. it has been doing well for a year already. it's alot lighter then the stock carpet. this is a plus for some, as well as me, trying to lighten up the fat girl. it still does have the jute padding on the back where necessary. there is a slight amount more interior resonance though than before. it's ok though i can enjoy my hooker exhaust just lil more. although the backing is not like the stock rubber backing, it's more like just automotive carpet coated in a thin coat of plastic. all in all it's a good deal.

I purchased my headliner material from them. I bought a color that was a little darker that what Year One and the others carry.
I thought their Customer service was excellent and delivery of the material was very quick. I really liked doing business with them.

I used www.motorsouthcarpet.com for mine..... The prices were similar but big difference was on shipping...complete kit with mass backing they only charged me 22 dollars for shipping.... Carpet had to be trimmed and holes cut just like the rest...

Ai chihuahua!
That's half the shipping I paid! And I didn't order mine with the mass backing which (I think) would have been heavier and more expensive to ship. I feel somehow, uh, violated.
Badman, I'll be sure to let you know the details of the carpet and installation when it gets here. I'm pretty excited about it and I think my 16 year old son is excited enough to take on a project with me.

Can you really compare shipping prices?
Unless you're from the same town the prices will be different. It would also depend on which shipping company was used and if it was shipped by air, by truck and so on.
I'm no shipping expert but that's the way I understand it anyway.
I do hope to hear how you like the carpet though

I just ordered my complete carpet set manu.by ACC from auto-interior.com It was $315.00 with mass backing and $21.00 for shipping. It seems to be the best deal I could find. Stock-interior.com seems ok but ACC is a little better quality. Some of the other sites wanted a lot for the mass backing ($120-160.00) but my cost was $240.00 for carpet set and$75.00 for mass backing.Badman
PS: motorsouthcarpet.com would have been $400.00 for the same as I ordered from auto-interior.com

I bought a rear curtain that goes behind the seat of my El Camino. I have a 1980 that is absolutely stock. The snaps that hold the carpet curtain did not match up with the ones installed over thirty years ago by GM. I am being charged a 25% restocking charge on my return even though the curtain "was made specifically for my vehicle." It seems it is my fault it does not fit.
