Lets see now….. more than 4 years; over $7K invested; approximately 260 working hours (plus) and zero return on investment.

---

So there is no "FINALLY! FACTORY EXACT AUTO CARPET!!!" ?

Then why did you start the thread?

---

Please tell me that you did not waste your money on an Economics course in College! Are you really that naive regarding the ramp up period for ROI and how it relates to new products in the market place? That has to be one of the most pitiful attempts to paraphrase or twist a statement that I have ever seen in my life. For the other interested parties that can understand simple English, here are some other products that we have allocated a large amount of time and are working towards completion. (Did you get that Alaskan a12? Since they have not yet been offered there has not been an opportunity for return on investment.) In 2008 we should have factory exact exhaust systems for all B & E Body vehicles. We are also working to complete package trays that incorporate the correct shape and texture of the originals. Just to set things straight, I was not born with a reproduction motto on my birth certificate. I had the need for quality products, for my own cars and decided to do something about it. I chose to use my efforts for that cause and for helping other people who were facing the same dilemma. It was better than feeling sorry for myself and criticizing those who at least made an effort to assist the industry. If you don’t like the way something is being done, grab the bull by the horns and change it. Necessity is certainly the Mother of Invention!

Don't let the nitpickers and naysayers get you down. Not everyone can see what visionary people like yourself and Scott and others see -- that's what sets your efforts apart! And we all benefit from that -- even those who can't grasp it.

Maybe I can a little more.What is your defination of a factory exact B/E body exhaust system? I was under the impression that they already exist. Of course I could be wrong!

The hypocrisy by some of these complainers is SO thick you could cut it with a chainsaw.
These are the same people that once they find out an improved part exists, run out and buy it
and then criticize the quality of the previous offerings. Walk a foot in these investors' shoes and
feel what it means to unload big bucks with the risk of not selling enough to get your money back.
I've tried and believe me it's no picnic. Once again, thank you Dave and others for investing YOUR
money so that you and others can have the best available product.

Your attention to detail is without equal sixbbl69. I think the word you attempted to use was
"aware".
I thought maybe it was just an act but you really can't tell the difference between correct and incorrect parts, can you?

Totally agreed!!
The available carpet kits today are junko, low quality..
Why spend 4-6 hours taking the car apart installing the carpet..
Then 1 year later the Black carpet is now Purple, and the carpet is coming unraveled..
To me spending a few $ more in higher quality materials is a better way than having to redo the labor portion..

As pappy said..
Pay now or pay later..

I will order a carpet kit update from Dave when available..

Thanks to Dave..

I will be talking to the guys at Motor Parts later this week. I hope the E Body carpet will be ready in the next few weeks. I don't want to commit an absolute date because they run their own agenda of course. Sorry but I cannot elaborate on any new products they might provide in the near future. I will see if one of the gentleman at MPS will come on here and close the loop regarding some of the questions. Thanks again!

For what its worth, and its probably not worth anything,my 4spd Superbird has ACC carpet that was put in 15yrs ago.It is still black,not wrinkled and fit like a glove with no trimming.The carpet in my 62 Savoy wagon came from Dante three years ago,[no clue who his supplier is] same thing,no issues.Did something change ?

Is your cars' stored indoors all the time?

My ACC carpet was starting to fade in one year from being outdoors. New cars' black carpet doesn't fade that fast.

Indoors,as I expect 99% of the ones discussed here also.
