You can easily find brand new carpet for these cars, aftermarket of course. I bought new carpet from Ebay for the Z back in 08. Worked fine, cost me around 100 bucks. Just hit ebay, search for Beretta carpet and take your time sifting through the results.

It is not hard to find good carpet in a yard... Not exceptionally hard anyway. A LOT of our cars came with grey interior. The replacement carpet does not have to be from an Indy.

I have a pretty decent carpet in my GTU that would fit your car (I will be replacing it with a newer style 91+ carpet when I do my interior swap.).


DTMAce, I tried buying carpet for my GTZ from a carpet company on Ebay, it was a nightmare. They sent me samples, and I picked the closest thing I could see to my Medium gray interior... the damn carpet was basically green, and it wasn't molded right, and had an ugly generic rubber foot pad instead of the OE style... Can you point me to where you got yours from if you remember?

Well we searched the yards around us and windows were knocked out and they were just as bad as the carpet that's in it now. So for now I took the carpet out and cleaned it as much as I could and will wait til I can find better carpet. And ace I've looked on ebay but there were a lot of bad reviews saying that they are molded wrong as lolvtec said. Someone else on here offered to sell theirs to me I just need to save up for the road trip to get it.

That carpet is wrong and will not fit properly. Her car is a 1990. There are multiple areas on a 94 that are different in the shaping due to things like air ducts and speaker location.

Look up TrimParts. That is who made the carpet I bought, it was made in Ohio. I will have to spend some time looking, to see if anyone on Ebay has their brand of carpet, cause it was pretty decent. Drivers side fit nearly perfect, passenger was less so, but it also sat all crushed together in a box for a year before I got around to installing it. lol Granted, mine was for a 94. However they probably have the earlier mold forms as well I would imagine. It may also be possible to get it straight from them.

That is the box it came in.
