Ken,

Do you glue the carpet to the pad and then the pad to the deck? Yours looks great.

Re: C2- Rear deck carpet will not lay flat.

My original carpet underlayment consisted of jute, a heavy "tar-impregnated" material and then carpet. The jute was glued to the fiberglass and the "tar" material to the jute. The carpet was glued to the "tar" material.

I purchased some repro carpet made by ACC. It doesn't fit nearly as well as the original or even some old AK stuff that it replaced. It appears to be too large. I also replaced the jute and "tar" material at the same time.
What manu made your carpeting. I'm looking for a better fit if there is a better vendor.....

Thanks

Mine is made by ACC as well. The rear deck carpet seems just a little wide, which makes it run into the fender wells. If I hear of a superior carpet set I will let you know.

Thanks Matt

That is exactly the problem I have as well as the formed wheel tub covers being too large and wrinkling. Thanks for the feedback.
