Source for carpet kit for 1988 3.2 “linen”
 
Struggling with this one. Does anyone have a good source for a carpet kit to replace the carpet in my 1988 3.2? VIN says it color is 2XF Linen so I want to find that color.

Thank you!!

I've been very happy w/ the interior products from Lakewell

I put Lloyd mats in my 85 3.2 15 years ago front and back and they still look like new. They are so good , many owners never change them out. High quality.

Agree with Mr Verburg. From my pasha material to carpets had good luck with them.

Agree with the above Lakewell recommendations. Use them for a Cancan red carpet set. Then when installing it Wouter was extremely helpful in providing just that extra bit if install guidance on a couple of pieces that didn't quite seem obvious on how to install.

Great product and great help/support. A good outcome.

Can't agree with Lakewell. Last year I ordered the door pockets for my 1973 from them. Despite their claims about being the best concours replacement parts, they were total crap. The shape of the door pockets isn't even correct, therefore they will never fit right. The pin that engages the hold-out spring isn't in the right place, etc. $1000 down the drain.

As with most every manufacturer, some of their stuff can be great while others, not so much.
I bought a full linen interior kit from Lakewell, for my ‘87 3.2. My carpet kit came trimmed with leather! I’m very happy with the leather and carpet kit.

I ordered a black silver knit for a car I was restoring and was very happy with it from this company. They look to have linen available in silver knit.

Good to hear your experience. However one other gripe I have with Lakewell is that they are in the Netherlands. Shipping costs to the USA are expensive, and if you have to return something, the shipping is prohibitive. With many hours of time zone difference, customer service sucks too. Therefore, for anyone in the USA, I highly recommend that you stick to suppliers in the USA, who also provide top-quality interior materials and kits, such as Autos International, Autobahn, etc.
