Gary,
Me too!
Nothing but the pads in 928 International and Performance Automotion not sure about Devek. Although, Performance Automotion does have 924/944 molded sets and might be something to pursue.
I should check out the world wide 928 OC net and see what Europe/Spain/GB/Mexico have to offer.

Guys,

I've seen them here.

web page

Can't vouch for the quality or the supplier but my understanding is that they specialize in high end restoration products.

Hope this helps

Hey Guys,

Check out 928 Specialists, the site is: 928gt.com. They have complete sets for about $600.00, I believe they are the original materials as well.

Hope to order a set for mine after my timing belt problems are corrected. Have to fix the mechanicals before the cosmetic stuff.

I replaced my carpet last winter. You have the option of either going with the original Sliverknit - or going Domestic.

Sliverknit - ~$600 from 928 Spec
Domestic - I paid $235 for my set from Original Fit Interiors in La Hoya.

The Domestic isn't as soft as the Sliverknit (it is still soft) - but also isn't as fragile.

Took me the better part of a month to do - a real PITA - but well worth the effort.

John V.,
Thanks! They come as a complete set, or, front sets. Price should be forthcoming.
Jay,
I take it they weren't pre-molded?
Jeez! Oi Vay. With these prices I think I'll go with some custom wood floors and a few nice throw rugs...

John-

The carpet pieces where pre-cut with all of the required Vinyl pieces stiched on where needed.

In as far as pre-formed - well, kinda. It did require 8 cans of Supertrim adhesive, 2 bottles of contact cement, and a varied assortment of tools for triming/etc.

Worst part is the 'hump' IMHO - just takes time to get it all right.

Great information....Jay, did the carpet set include pieces for the doors and the back of the rear seat?
Does Original Fit Interiors have a website and if not can you give me the city and state where they are located?

Thank You

Gary, et all-

The kit includes EVERYTHING including the door panels and tool cover, down to the side covers and dead pedal.

They have no website - but the contact info is-

Original Fit Interiors
13506 Hoyito Cir
La Grange, CA 95329
ph - 209.852.9054

$235 + shipping (+ $20)

Sorry for the mis-recollection of the city - La Grange vs. La Hoya - my mistake (hey....you can only remember so much!)

I have no affiliation with...etc....just a satisfied customer passing it on.

hth-

I got mine by calling GAAH direct. www.gaah.com I got a grey set in the new Porsche color "graphite grey" as seen in the new Boxters/911's. you can order it it ANY color you wish. I took a peice down to the dealership, sat in a 911 (drooled) and the carpet is identical. All pre cut..trimmed etc. Like JAy said. A sharp knife, lots of glue and patience is in order. I have a set waiting to go in my car. Just waiting for the time to do it...

Got any further info?

I called the number for Original Fit Interiors and apparently it is not the correct number...I called information and there is no listing for Original Fit Interiors in La Grange, Ca...

Do you have any more information..
Thanks
