Looking to swap the carpet in my 92 B4C and wondered where everyone is getting their new carpet from. I see tons of people selling, but I am looking for the thicker stuff or mass backing I believe they call it.

Can anyone speak as to where they got theirs and what they thought of it?

Thanks

ACC makes the majority of carpet sold by many vendors. I got mine from rock auto, the thicker backing is an option thats called "sound deadening" on their site IIRC

I saw on Camaro Central site, ACC has a "std backing" and a "MASS backing". Has anyone tried either from them?

Hi there,
I tried the ACC carpet from Rock Auto, seemed a pretty good price. I got the standard type (NOT mass-backing) and laid it over the original carpet. I had to trim off the jute padding under the driver's footwell, because it was too thick to fit under the gas pedal.


I liked the non-padded carpet better, it seems to conform more easily to the shape of the footwells. However, if you are removing the original carpet, you might want the mass backing.

In a sense, yes. It has a thick rubber coating on the back, which acts similarly to the ACC mass backing.
