Re: Looking for a site that sells carpet precut for an F-Body.
Get the stuff from F-bodycarpet.com!
I just finished up installing it and I have to say that it is some of the best quality carpet ever. It is so thick that I can just about stand a quarter up in it. As far as weight...it seems to be a BIG misconseption that it is a lot heavier.
I had both out and moved them all around... and I would say that it is about 10 to 15 lbs heavier. (One gallon of gas is about 7lbs). You have to factor in that it includes the backing which is not on most of the other carpets ... you have to transfer the batting on others. I also removed my rear seats and seatbelts (damn those belts and misc were heavy) at the same time and installed a Wolfe roll bar. With no holes in the rear seat area the seat removal looks factory.
I have done just about everything to my car, and this carpet is one of my favorite mods. It makes it feel much nicer inside.
As for fit and finish...it comes extra long in some places (the edges) so you have to cut it to fit like most of them. It is molded and fits well. It is really a two person job to install it and you need to take your time to make it look nice. But when your done it looks fantastic.
I'll take and host a bunch of pictures when I get some time.

Thanks for the help guys, I'm looking for white carpet and so far no luck finding any. I'm going to email ls1speed and see if they have any carpet that is white.

Yeah I have his number...he was a good guy to deal with. He can get any color you can think of.
His name is Tom Federico #619-501-3521
Tell him Sean with the Blue Z28 sent you (hope he still remembers me).
He used to be or might still be a vendor here...and his product is awesome. Everyone just says "damn" when they see my carpet.
You might also try emailing him through his Impala website...see if it still works there.
