    Carpet

    I haven't used them but I jut got my carpet from AutoKrafters.It's made by a company called ACC and it's really nice. I think I paid $150.00 for it. I just like the piece of mind of having someone to contact if anything were to ever happen. If you get it let us know how it is!

    I started to go with the 2-piece but decided on the 1-piece instead. It is from Choo-Choo Customs in TN.,also the ACC brand.I'm very satisfied

    I have been looking at those for years...would be nice to know if they work, just for another option for carpet suppliers.

    I think most guys go with AutoKrafters, and most (if not all) have had good luck with them.

    Only problem is that they state that they use a maverick floor to shape them...is that with or without catalytic converter hump?

    I guess they DO ask to specify year of car, hopefully they take that hump into consideration :huh:

    I went back and looked at the feedback...it is all positive with only 1 negative (didn't dig through them all to see the negative one).

    there is at least one positive for a maverick on the first page (near the bottom). I sent her an e-mail to see if the carpet fit well. Will let you all know what I find out.

    Carpet

    I am personally not satisfied with the one piece carpet from ACC.
    I know Dan Hines ordered 2 piece carpet from someone. I don't
    remember how that turned out.

    Well now that you guys mention it, I ordered it last night from the guys on my post. I ordered "Gun Metal" instead of black, which is what I initially ordered. DANG! I didn't think to ask about the two piece option! It was only $124 so I figure something new beats nothing at all, sure hope it has a decent fit. I'll update when I get it in.

    Did you request the edge of the front section bound? I did and it was no extra charge ... Original Mavericks weren't bound but Mustangs were .... You can see it in this picture ...
