try jcwitney

give www.jcwitney.com a try, back when i was building stereo systems for competition i purchased sevral color carpets that was so close of a match it was undetectable by the judges scoring and judging my builds. just a thought. but i have to mention that was in the mid 90's when i was building systems!!

I buy mine from miami rubber, they sell a lot of automotive fabrics including automotive vinyl, suede, convertible tops, carpet, seat upholstry, etc. try to find an automotive upholstry place in your area and get them to match your carpet with what they have or try to get if from their vendors, or you can always go to a carpet store and look at their carpet as a last resort. cracking the phone book helps. look under automotive upholstry, upholsterers and upholsterers fabrics and suppliers.

Take one of your floor mats to an auto upholstery shop and they will match the color and grade perfectly. When I did this they sold me a piece of scrap for $5.00 and I still have some left, it's a perfect match.
