Would you say a carpet cleaning company that specializes in Persian carpets would be the safest bet to get the job done without harming 44 year old Porsche carpets?

How long have they been in business? How long at present location?
Go talk to them in person. You should be able to get a sense that they're legit.
If they're legit, they should have the skills to handle your car.

Well paid a visit to the Persian carpet dealer and they said they couldn't do them - too old and fragile. If you try to bend one of the carpets you can hear a crunchy sound.
So, I have a couple of,choices: 1. Install the carpet as is
2. Try and clean them myself.
I have cleaned carpets before but nothing this old.

Is this your own car?
If so, I would Google resto Porsche carpeting. JMO

I would check out resto carpets.
They make all kinds of vintage parts today.
Especially for bad-ass cars like yours.

Believe me when I say I have been searching for 7 yrs. and NO One has this material, here in the USA and Europe. Even Porsche Classic which is a branch of Porsche, says they have no plans on remaking the original carpets. This statement coming from the director of Porsche Classic.
Thanks for the compliment. It is literally a screamer when you get on it. Some people like a duck tail but this one is a Duck Tail delete.
