I can't speak of WCM's carpets. I can speak of both the stock an SewFine's....

The stock carpet is made up of many pieces. The largest single piece is underneath your feet up front. It is the section where your feet are for both front seats, and the middle section between the seats back to the drop off.

A separate piece makes up the area in front of the shifter (on the wall).

Another separate piece is underneath the drop off in the center section (it's only 1 inch tall about about 14-16 inches wide). The wheel wells are separate pieces that goes from the center section up and around the front.

The final section(s) are those that cover the back side of the wheel wells. (If I'm remembering right, this part includes the section closest to the door where the seat belt bolts in.) ========================== Sewfine's install uses different pieces. For example the small 1" tall section at the drop off for the center aisle is actually part of the center section on Sewfine's kit. Sewfine also has carpet that comes up and covers the battery compartment(s). In SewFine's install the section under your feet is separate for driver and passenger (and separate from the center section).

Sewfine also tends to have larger edge wrapping than the stock carpet, which may or may not be objectionable to you.
