86' GMC carpet
I ordered carpet from GMC Paul's back in January. Their site claims OEM colour within 5%, but what I recieved was not even close to original. After being told their policy states no returns on carpet and then finally being out right ignored I had to sell the carpet locally. Anyway I am wondering if someone can recommend a company that reproduces carpet in a CLOSE match to original. The colour is the standard "GM blue" of the 80s era. My '88 Caprice has identical blue carpet and door panels. I have attached a picture below: original on top, GMC Paul's "within 5% of oem" on bottom.

I uses ACC carpet and door bottoms for 2 of my trucks. I bought them from stockinteriors.com. There is a good chance GMC Paul sells ACC products.
Are you just doing the door bottoms or are you doing the floor too? |

Re: 86' GMC carpet
I am wanting to do door panels and carpet. I forgot to write down the name off the box that was shipped from GMC Paul's but the company was from California I think.

Re: 86' GMC carpet
Keep in mind that there are several "blues". What your showing almost looks like dark blue & medium blue.
Check out USA1 Industries, they do a really good job at having the correct colors. https://www.usa1industries.com/1973-...nels-pair.html

Re: 86' GMC carpet
I am going to phone them in the morning. Wish I found them before I bought from GMC Paul's. Thank you.

Re: 86' GMC carpet
Talk to Randy. What's nice too, their door carpet comes with the metal trim, were all the other places don't. They really strive to have the correct colors.
