Sounds like your going to have to get a custom job done. Call some body shops and ask for referals.

If your carpet is dirty, you can clean it up pretty easily by pressure washing it. Otherwise, try car-part.com to search the junkyards for a "new" carpet. The carpet in my '95 LS was badly stained (Coke stains), and I considered having it replaced until the upholstery guy told me that Lexus is the only source for the carpet, so it would be $1,200-$1,500 for the carpet and labor. I pulled the carpet out and pressure washed it, and it almost looked like new, and it didn't cost any money.

I've heard $600 +/- to have new covers put on all of the seats. What kind of foam work are you having done?

I don't know what PSI the washer was that I used (I think it has about a 5hp engine), but it didn't do any damage at all to my carpet. Actually, it cleaned it up quite nicely. This was the worst of the stains in my car:
