interior carpet

Post Thu Mar 15, 2007 1:27 pm

anyone know where you can get big rolls of interior carpet?

As i've got the rear seats out of mine and i need to replace the rest of the carpet as well.

does anyone know anywhere that will sell such a large piece?

getting a flat piece of carpet to sit right will take some considerable skill. i suggest speaking with a good trimmer - and note the word good as there's good and bad. it's not childs play to get a factory piece of carpet to sit right (getting it far enough forward and losing every wrinkle under the front seats takes some patience) and that's pre-shaped to the floorpan!

unless you are a good trimmer of course. but if you are then why would you be asking about where to get carpet?

i took mine to supposedly the best trimmer over here - he said a proper job would have to be a 3 piece - still didnt sort one out - bmw have scheifer (black) carpets still selling at just under 300 stg - well worth it id say if you consider the difference it makes to how scruffy the car looks inside.
