So, I order an ACC carpet set from Stock Interiors. All I can say is what a piece of crap that product is. Let's start with the first issue. The insulation padding which is pre-glued looked like a child did it It was bunched up and crooked. Had to peel it off and re-glue it. Not to mention it deformed the heck out of the carpet itself. Issue two: front piece of carpet not cut square to the heel pad. Issue three: Finished edge(part that covers the rear piece of carpet) was wavy. You mean to tell me someone can't cut a straight line. Issue four and the biggest issue of all: THE F-ING CARPET ISN'T WIDE ENOUGH TO REACH THE DOOR SILLS, which can only be determine after you cut the holes needed for screw braces and anything else that sticks out of the floor.

What really sucks is you can't tell if its really going to be to short until you cut it and get it to lay flat, which then does not allow you to return it. I won't even get into how bad the quality of the carpet itself is. Stay away from ACC carpet products. I've read some good experiences with their product in some other posts(pretty old post), but their product today is just crap. It's not like I might have just recieved a "bad one", this thing should have never left the factory. Now I have to redo the entire process all over again as I have some big events coming up and put the car back together, bad carpet or not.

Who in the hell scimps on a couple inches of carpet? The other issues I could live with and correct, but leaving a gap at the sills is poor quality all the way around and being cheap. End of rant.

Who else sells (makes) chevelle carpets?

Reach out to Stock Interiors, even if you cut holes into it. I ordered ACC through RockAuto within the last year and I must have trimmed 6 inches off each side to get it to the holes for the sill plate screws.

As far as I know ACC is the only manufacturer. So getting carpet from same manufacturer no matter where you buy it.

I think your right. I'll give them a call and see what's up with possibly getting another set.

I ordered mine from Ground Up. When I told them it was made wrong (drivers pad 4” off and going up trans tunnel, Ground Up said call ACC who would not even talk to me. I ate the cost

Obviously you could have it made at a trim shop. Don’t know if you have ever noticed but when they do a carpet it is not molded but rather individual pieces that have binding on them. Or if you are handy and adventurous you could cut and fit the individual pieces yourself and then take them to a carpet shop or possibly a trimmer and have them surged or bound. I would be comfortable doing it myself but I spent years as a professional flooring installer so much so that back in the day I even had my own carpet binding machine.

Not sure who it was, OPGI maybe? but they offered a 1 piece carpet set. I'm pretty sure its NOT made by ACC, but that is the only one that I'm aware of thats not, and I've never used one so can't speak to their quality.

Classic Industries bought out TrimParts about 5 years back and stopped selling their carpets, or perhaps just reduced the number of models they make it for to just F-Bodies since thats what they specialize in. Trim parts had bought out Detroit carpet 20 years back, and they were the main competitor to ACC.

FWIW, I have had luck in the past ordering carpets from ACC if you make it "custom"... Order an oddball combination of options on your carpet and they have to run it through production by itself instead of in a big batch like the rest- and seems like quality is better that way.
There are all kinds of options on the carpet sets, but they are not shown in the catalogs or even on rock auto, you would have to order it from someone who is a reseller who can put in a custom order, like Wellington Classics.

Options like, Extra carpet around the sides, No binding, no heel pad, no jute backing, carpet type (you can order it in cut pile, 80/20 loop, essex deluxe loop, etc etc) as well as all the standard options that they show in the catalogs, automatic, 4spd, console, no console, etc etc.

Its really too bad that TrimParts carpet is gone, because every one of those i installed fit great.
