Well, I have a carpet interior from Sewfine. I'd only change a couple
of things.

Due to the way I get in and out of my camper, I've worn the carpet on
the wheel arch near to the step. The OEM carpet didn't have this
problem. I'd probably put some sort of vinyl there the next time.

The edges of the SewFine carpet are covered in cloth strips. I think
I would rather have the "perfect binding" (?) of wrapped threads. The
SewFine is NOT form fitting, but rather flat strips (a few more than
pieces than stock.) I'm overall still pleased with the look.
