I have a B7 Blue interior code on my fender tag. I see several manufacturers offering blue carpet sets, but none look like the right color. Where can I get a nice carpet with the correct color?

My first thought would be Legendary, did you check there?

Many are not aware that ECS makes excellent carpet kits. You can request them to ship them flat to avoid the folds and creases that occur with other brands that are squeezed into a 12x12x40" box. The downside is that the flat type shipping box costs more.
For years, the common sources for carpet were really stingy, leaving you short going up the firewall and sometimes barely making it to the sill plates on the sides.

carpet varied from year to year model to model - there is no STANDARD "B7" carpet

do you have a sample you are trying to match?
what year? - what model?

I didn't know that Dan. It's for a 1969 Roadrunner. The second row from the bottom of the fender tag reads:
B5 B5 H2C B7.
The carpet and headliner are Dark blue, but I'm sure they are not original to the car. The seat belts are dark blue as is the dash. Seats and door panels are white.
What would the correct carpet and headliner color be?
