When I had the interior of my car redone the carpet was purchased from Auto Custom Carpets

Are the best? I couldn't tell you. Mine has been in for about seven years and I have no complaints. No obvious wear, no fading, and it fits perfect.

Re: 1990 camaro carpet color and best brand to get purchace

Your best bet would be to contact some companies and see if you can get some color samples... then match it up to your carpet color... I would probably look under the center console for an exact color match as that should be the cleanest and least chance of fade from the sun. I originally thought about under the back seats, but I have seen where the carpet gets water spots and such from leaky tops, or if someone left the top down and got caught in the rain etc...

I bought mine from A1 Auto, I do not remember the company that made it but I am really happy with it... I want to think they got their carpet from ACC as well.. I would even try www.hawksthirdgenparts.com, he should have a source, and usually his stuff is quality. The only thing that I really have a complaint about is I had to trim the door threshold area... It was not hard, just creeping up on it so it was not short was the biggest PITA. Also since the carpet was new and fluffy, so I had to really work on the seat track nuts when I bolted it back to the floor... I got it all in and once I got the thread started I was able to tighten it up good...

But I would expect that with any new carpet
