i layed down my new trim parts carpet today , wow , very very nice. i bought the ESSEX PREMIUM CUT PILE. i took out the old style cut loop , this is like carpet out of a new car today. i like it a lot better than the old style. if my car was all correct then id have the loop but its not soooo. the other thing nice about it is its one piece not 2 so i think it looks better... very heavy and durable...
Nice.. Always say it's the little stuff that sets cars a part. Really enjoying your improvements. Car is going to be killer when your done ( assuming you are ever done) ....

Looks awsome man. Love the shifter and dash. Want to do something similar !
Looks good got any info and price wher you got the carpet iv been looking for the one pc.
i bought it direct from trim parts, its the essex cut pile carpet. it was 185.00 shipped... i looked at a lot of other places and couldnt find it any cheaper , actually most places were more, either the carpet was more or once the shipping got added in it was more.. or that dreaded thing they call sales tax.. and if i buy in ca i have to pay almost the highest sales tax in the nation , thanks to our state government that is REAL good at spending money but not good at all about spending it wisely...but its always easy to spend OTHER PEOPLES MONEY....http://www.trimparts.com/ also i forgot , that once you order they send you a 20% off coupon for your next purchase and a catalog
