Default Replacement Carpet Kits

Anyone have experience with this kit? Any word on quality? The price seems attractive.

Looks like it's quality carpet and at a good sale price. You should have them send you a sample. Based on the cost alone, it's proly going to be a good fit as well. Good luck and let us know on what you decide. I'm thinking of some new carpet as well. I bookmarked their site.

I've emailed them for a sample. I'll repost once I get it and let you know my impression.

That's either one hell of a deal or some "poor quality carpet". I'll sure many will be interested in what you find out.

I would be concerned that they are including 2005 and 2006 with the carpet for C5s.

Yea, that worries me a little, too. But I have to think that if it's for one car or the other, it's for the C5 and not the C5.

The site also says that each set is made upon ordering, so maybe there is just the one price/page for C5/C6 kits. I'm looking into this.
