Guys,
Need a little help what is the best website to purchase a factory black colored carpet? I want OEM not aftermarket molded type, the one I am looking for should already have all cut outs etc.
Any advice? I have seen a few people on the org get some of these but forgot the website.
Thank you in advance.

If you are as much of a cheap bastard as me, you can't beat the value of ripping out the original carpet and emptying a couple of spray cans of Duplicolor Vinyl and Fabric into it.

ya i was thinkin about repaiting mine.. hows that turn out?
get the color and as long as the carpet isnt TO BAD to begin with it will look "good" wont look new, but it will be much improved. if your really really picky, you will notice it looks a little hazy vs. clean stock carpet.
See below: Extremely dirty 11-year old OEM charcoal carpet, torn out, hosed down, hung to dry overnight, and Duplicolored Black. For comparison, the floor mat is a retail-purchased black mat.

No offense, but you can tell that everything in that interior was sprayed with "Cheapness" in mind, and the carpet isn't the same color throughout. It looks black in some spots and puple in others. I bought black carpet for like $100 or so from APlusPerformance and there was very minimal cutting involved. Turned out amazing!

Photography and lack of cleaning really doesn't flatter my interior, but I maintain it is a pretty decent example of what "cheap supplies and half-assed skill" can achieve. Yes, a couple of dash panels managed to go slightly blue. That doesn't thrill me either. While it's not beyond detection that the carpet has been tampered with, it certainly doesn't appear mottled with black and colored spots in person. I still recommend this approach for anyone that will go without exposure to a show judge's scrutiny.

I did not explain myself fully. I want a molded carpet like I have purchased aftermarket already however I would want all cut outs (around shifter, etc) to be done already. Is that something that you can buy? I purchased an aftermarket carpet and the middle came uncut and I cut it to match the OEM that I took out and on each side of my console it is cut too short. That is the reason I want one that already has the cut out if that is possible to purchase anywheres.
I thought I seen a post not long ago of someone purchasing one that already had all cut outs on it. I do not want to spraypaint/dye my carpet, I would want to purchase a new one.

The only "OEM" carpet you'd get is from GM... and I don't believe they sell it. If they did it would cost a fortune.
