Default 82 Collectors Edition replacement carpet

I bought a 82 Collectors Edition and the carpet has been replaced. This carpet looks like **** carpet from from someones house. We have one where I work with the original carpet in it and it looks totaly different, like it should. Does anyone make carpet for the Collectors Edition that looks more like the original cut pile carpet? The right door panel is original, left one is Corvette America.

Default different carpet in a 82CE....one off!

I too have an 18k mile 82 CE. Yes, the replacement carpet here does look like ***.

One of our vendors can get a good set to you.
One of them is Auto Custom Carpet. out of GA.

Remember...this carpet was COMPLETELY different from all other C-3 carpets.
1. Thicker and plusher than a 'regular' '82
2. One year only color.
