You mentioned in the write up that you had to stretch the carpet to fit. Question: How did you stretch it? By pulling on it by hand or did you use something mechanical?

The carpet can't really be stretched. The slack has to come from somewhere and since it's a plastic lined carpet, it doesn't really stretch like the type of carpet installed in your living room. Pulling it on one side means its too short on the other.
Honestly the ACC carpet (which is sold by Black Dragon) is a very poor quality carpet as far as fitment. Someone with a lot of upholstery experience can probably make it fit fine in a few days. I could have probably made it fit pretty well if I put two weeks into it. But it will never be OEM.
