Do you by any chance have any automotive upholstery shops in your area? They might have some, they'd surely have catalogs with samples that are available from their suppliers. That's how I found exactly what I wanted. You could search the internet using the search terms of say "torch red automotive carpet", but I found the internet doesn't offer true representations of carpet colors as the catalogs.

Default red carpet

You might try contacting Dan "Crazy Cowboy" a vendor here on the forum. He makes partitions for vettes and I think he does some of them in carpet. Really good guy and if he has some I'm sure he would sell you what you need.
