I spoke with a few different carpet suppliers. They mostly agreed that black Wilton is likely to fade in the sun, and velour may be a good upgrade from standard nylon. Fading shouldn't be a problem with the velour.

The cost for velour is $99/yard (60" wide), the cost of the Wilton III is $105/yard (42" wide), and nylon is typically about $50/yard (width varies). I ordered samples.

Do you think velour would look out of place on this type of car?
