Default 80/20 loop?

Is this what it looks like?



What's your preference? I really don't care that the loop came with a vinyl interior and the plush came with leather.

Anyone use MAD's 2 in 1 carpet & foil back padding?

The loop carpet is MUCH more durable that cut pile. Also doesn't matt down like pile does. Damn original...wish I did my car in loop.

P.S. That carpet in pic looks of much better quality than ACC. A bit of a pattern to it also. NICE!!!

Just used the Mad's kit for verts, it's good for heat also....and cheaper, I know of some guys that use the Home Depot heat reflective shielding from the plumming Dept., they say it works fine.....
