Re: best quality carpet

Hawks Third Gen Parts also sells ACC... that's what I bought for mine and I'm very happy with it. It was a perfect color, size and shape match.

Re: best quality carpet

If you don't mind me asking how much did everyone pay for their carpet? The reason I'm asking is because i saw a carpet set going for $430 and i thought that is way out of my price range!

Re: best quality carpet

ACC & ACS (2 carpet companies that made carpets for our cars) hae merged.

One of them use to offer a 1000 thread count deluxe carpet, over the normal standard 800 count carpet.. You can inquire about that too...

There may be a variation on the floor pan somewhere.I ran the part numbers and they're different.

Re: best quality carpet

The Trans Am is Faster... Unless it's the lighter Formula

Do you also sell the higher premium 1000 thread count carpet?

Also what about mass backing and such.

I'd like:

Black front section only (no carpet for the back seats and further back, will be tubbed later on)
1,000 thread count
No Mass Backing

I believe this can be had from IROC Zone but I forget his website all the time. Its something like IROC Zone or IROC Motorsports.
Found the website: http://iroczone.com/motorsports/carpet/carpet.htm
