As far as I know no one makes it. I use to have it on my 84 bird but just changed to newer panels w/out carpet option.

For replacing, I buy carpet at pepboys and cut it into the right shape and glue it on. Some of the curves can be trickey, but usually the glue along with stretching the carpet will make it look like the factory carpet.

carpet for interior plastic

i went to the local stereo install shop and bought some of the same black carpet they use for the sub boxes. it stretches really nice and it looks really good. used 3m adhesive and it worked out very nice.

There is a company that makes it. Do a search on carpeted interiors. I asked the question once. And in that thread the company name is listed.

The Paddock went out of business about a year ago, surprisingly.
