Ive done searches and lately everyone is talking trash about ACC fading problems, but noone is recommending a better brand. I need front and hatch.
Thanks

You can't buy the other brands direct. Crown Auto makes tops and carpet and there's a supplier in Georgia we use. ACC is the biggest carpet supplier by far, but certainly not the best. I've installed 4 ACC carpets in a 67 Riv, 72 GS, 67 GS and an 87 Turbo T. Ok, cheap stuff, but definitely not as nice as I want. Plus, ACC does not have the correct rubber backing on the back of their carpets. When I asked, they said its not even available.

I think things have gotten worse since most of the top guys died in that plane crash a couple years back.

I installed ACC carpet in my 87, then blew the engine about a month later and parked it in the garage. This garage has no door, so the sun gets in part of the day, but not direct all day. The carpet faded within a year. Pretty sorry stuff in my opinion.
