Default Carpet Question

I am buying new carpet for my 81. I plan on buying it from Wilcox and am getting the whole set. Question is does anyone know if there were more than one shade of red for the interior in the 81? Also, some of the sets say 80/20 and some say cut pile, what is the difference? Thanks for any help. I can't really tell by looking at my carpet it's mostly orange now. Thanks for any help.

All 81 Corvettes had cut pile rugs. 1968 to 1976 Corvettes with vinyl interior had 80/20 loop. There is only one red interior in 1981.
