Carpet shopping?

[cbrxxtreme]

So I'd like to replace the original carpet in pops 1970. My question is has anyone used the ones for sale on ebay? They say they are correct heel plate bonded, and loop pile. They seem cheap, however I don't want something that looks cheesey, and low quality. Where have any one else had good experiance in their carpets? Also I'm not sure of the mopar color blue that the car is, or what the carpet color code / name is. The ones I see on ebay only offer a few shades of blue, guessing I'd want light blue, or blue. Thank you!!!!

ACC is one of the better carpet suppliers. Especially in the "affordable" range.

   The one I got from ebay didn't fit the hump in my car. Got another one from ACC and the fit was perfect.

I've seen the ACC brand on ebay... are they the same company?  Thanks!

I recently bought ACC carpet for my '70 4SPD Challenger from RockAuto.  Very good pricing.  http://www.rockauto.com/catalog/raframecatalog.php?carcode=1078444&parttype=1264
I opted for their "Essex" - Super Plush, 100% Nylon premium carpet, rather than the standard 80% Rayon / 20% Nylon Loop carpet.  ACC carpet comes quite over-sized for custom fitting.  So there will be lots of trimming to do, but all the new carpets (including TrimParts) will require trimming.  After trimming, the carpet fits quite nicely, and I'm happy with results.

Very true.  I put the "Essex" in mine too.

Posing for a picture! Actually need the garage space to replace wheel bearings in my truck, was only outside for an hour or two. There were no blue fished harmed in the making of that photo!!! But it was driven year round for the first 7 or 8 years of it's life.

I just installed the ACC Essex with the mass backing-heavy and thick but I like it.

I bought the basic, kinda disappointed that there is no hole for the shifter! Why do they ask if it is auto or 4 sp if there is no hole cut? Found some rot in the floor, so gotta get a floor patch befor the carpet goes in.

The carpet is totally shaped different for a four speed car to accommodate the large transmission hump.

There was no option for a 3speed... Will the 4sp carpet fit well on my 3sp hump?
