Question Has anyone ever ordered carpeting from these guys?

The carpet in my vert is destroyed (see other thread on rips in vert top, lol) and I am looking to replace it.

Does anyone have any feedback on this company's products? I dont usually put ebay stuff on my 7s, but this carpet seems to be quality and the price is right.

I actually plan on pruchasing the full set for curiosity sake. They do say you have to cut out all of the necessary holes, other than that it is a direct fit and in my opinion pretty cheap.

For that price i say dont expect much.that carpet is cheap. i bought a whole set of carpet for my coupe ,from other company( ACC) for 230, the moulding on the carpet was OK, the fitment sucks because i had to cut the front carpet in half so it reach the sides . the back carpet was fine. after i put all together it looks good but it was a pain.

Agreed, and for the record that wasn't the ebayer I had in mind. It was the one that sells the replacemnt for 230.00.

Looks like it might be pretty good. I'm considering buying new carpet for my coupe.

I'm confused as to why they would list it as 79-92 Convertible. So I'd definitely ask them exactly what you're getting or if you are supposed to specify the year when you order...

Other than that, from what I've heard from others on this forum about actually finding someone that has 'vert carpeting, this sounds like a good deal.

Keep us posted -- for that price, if the carpet is of any quality, I might consider replacing mine even though I have no major problems.

I have it in my car. it's not the best molding but it looks so good. taking out the dash isnt too bad, but sometimes just cutting the holes and aligning it is kind of a pain. it just take time.

I sent them an email asking for specific pics of the vert carpet.

Also searched on the net for other sources, but came up empty. Very frustrating. Does any one have any other sources? Even acc doesnt list anything for verts.

I also emailed them yesterday... Got a fairly quick responce. I asked if there was a discount avail if I ordered carpet and floor mats at the same time... the responce I got said... they were from diff vendors so no discount other than the shipping. just for the record they were "year specific" when ordering the floor mats.
