No idea who made the wrong stuff. Perhaps NJSteve will weigh in. He installed the carpet when he originally bought the car and I just Rit Dyed it to freshen it up and reused it. The Jensen brothers called it out during MCACN judging and were absolutely correct to my surprise and dismay. The new carpet is ACC from Ames. |
IIRC the old carpet I installed back in 2012 was ACC!
Maybe they have different loop height options and I ordered the wrong one...or they sent the wrong one??? |
Huh. weird.
I'm pretty sure I replaced my original with ACC carpet circa 2004(?);
IIRC the loop looked the same;
The carpet appeared a bit more "fuzzy" than my original tattered carpet - but I wrote that off as wear and tear...
Can you please describe the difference?
(I only ask because sometimes posted photgraphs don't quite do it justice)
I have also used Rit to re-colour spots;
IMHO having to do that is absolute crap;
My original carpet was thirty-four years old when I replaced it, and was still perfectly black - but within a year of installing that ACC carpet, many areas that the sun touched were fading to a light brown...
