Back years ago ACC was the BEST.
After that time frame when they had lost ACC people in a plane crash their quality went to crap.
ACC carpets have always turned reddish in a couple of years.
I switched over to Trim Parts and had excellent color and fitment since.
Acc was always short in one place or another.

When Dave came out with the shipped flat carpet it sounds like a great idea but too much dough for me (I still have to get up for work everyday).

Dave's carpet is ACC but with a near perfect heel pad installation and then put in a flat box for shipping. I never had a problem laying a carpet as many here seem to say???

Unless I see otherwise I'll be buying another Trim Parts for my GTX.

I wasn't happy with the fit on the last two ACC carpets so I ordered from Trim Parts. Should have it in soon.

the acc carpet in my 65 coronet is garbage. i'll replace it this winter and don't mind spending extra money for a better product.

Is anyone glueing their carpets once they put the insulation underneath to help promote shaping?

I bought a carpet from Dante. I picked it up at Carlisle. We will be installing it Sat I hope. It was a Trim parts carpet. I laid it in the car before it went to the alignment shop it appeared alittle large around the 4spd hump but we will see when we actually start cutting it to fit. The carpet seems to have plenty of extra material around the edges though. I'll update after we attempt this weekend.



How did it go?

yes I have seen lot of resto shops are now offering Trim parts instead ACC. Long time ago whne I bought my ACC, was the lead on ebay auctions... not anymore.

Well I went with Trim Parts from Tamraz because they also sells AMD Door hinges good priced, so will be able to save on shipping. I'm waiting for the new ebay invoice from them including the upper hinges to my Charger and pay all together ( they told me will add to my order those because they aren't offering those on ebay by piece )... weird has been 4 days now and still haven't received the updated invoice.

Sorry I did not get the car back from the shop as expected yet. It was in for alignment,inspection and a small repair on the lower front fender. It will be a while now as I will be out of town this coming weekend.
