carpet...?

my carpet could use a revamp...color is either gonna be gray or black. i've seen different types but not sure of the differences. i want something that will look like modern crpeting, not like my current one where u can see all the individual loops, i remember seeing a picture of the inside of a mav that looked like the inside of a brand new car and the carpet made all the difference. anyone care to explain the differences and what i should buy for a more modern look

 

mine is cut pile from ACC

 

Your car has "loop" carpet. You want "cut pile" as Joe said.

 

...and you want the...2 piece...

 

ACC will make you anything you want, just find a dealer, they have samples you can choose from.

 

why do i want a 2 piece and not the 1 piece? just curious y 2 piece is better? i would imagine 1 piece would look better

 

if you are imagining, why not imagine the 2 piece looking better...

Carpet Weave

I installed black plush cut pile, 1 piece in my car last Sept from www.stockinteriors.com. The carpet cost 119.95 + ship. I am very satisfied w/ the way it looks. The car had 2 pc. I don't know if that was orig carpet; It looked like it might have been. I like the look of the one piece better but I think the 2pc is probably easier to install. I think it's just a matter of preference. I wud'nt have a problem w/ either format.

 

Previous owner of my car installed a 1 peice, cut pile black carpet and it looks sharp.
My only complaint is that I'm still not used to a car not having a center console, so the carpet looks lumpy around the transmission hump bit that can't be helped unless I get rid of the sweet bucket seats. Which will never ever happen.

 

My car's carpet is a little loose arnd the hump but U have to be lookin hard to notice it. Im very please w\ the results and the cost.
Im not sure the aftermarket does'nt make them that way, purposely.
I plan on installing a console in the future, not to hide the carpet but for storage and convience.
I will either make one or get one from boneyard. I have fac buckets and will replace them also w\ some later model cloth; I hate vinyl plus the newer seats are more comfy for distance driving.

 

fits great no lumps or other issues

 

i think personally cut pile is the way to go

 

i got my carpet from jcwhitney and it looks really good fits almost like the original did. the carpet looks like its from a new car and a 2 piece is easier to install it doesn't look anydifferent

 

I like those carpets that they install in hotrods, they look like they are at least 4-6 pieces. Anyone know where to get those from? they might be custom I suppose.
