    I suggest using a “light grey” I bought just some “grey” off Amazon and it appeared to be the same from photos but it was practically black when I got it. Our carpet is actually very very light grey though.
    Also apparently using vinyl backed carpet doesn’t corner very well.

    Carpet all day. It will absorb as opposed to reflect sound waves and will serve as a 'natural' decoupler.

    Onlinefabricstore.net
    www.bry-tech.com
    big box stores

    Try to get them to send samples so you can get close.

    I've had luck locally too - maybe pay your local car audio stores a visit. You'll probably pay more, but won't have to eat shipping.
