Can ya get black carpets?

[Bob_S]

last time I read answers most replies read similar to the age old saying of

like rocking horse poo

I know Simon13 managed to spray a Grey parcel shelf Black.
Suppose it would be the same as - only thing is the carpet will get more of a beating in it's new life than a parcel shelf

I'd hazzard a guess at dying it with somesort of dye, or colour it in with a black marker pen?

i tried bmw for the black carpets and theyre not available.i also tried carpet manufacturers from retro car mag and had no luck as they say no one has the patterns to make them.

LOL, or take the misses out over some serious speed bumps whilst shes trying to put on some black eye makeup stuff LOL.

Funny, I was just looking at my dirty light grey carpet in the touring the other day and wonderin if i could get a black one!!

Anyone know of a place that may be able to make a new carpet set if i gave them the old stuff to copy??
Must be somewhere that will do it for a sensible price!

Hey i have been through this mission as well a few years back, i ended up going to the scrappies and askin them if they had e30 carpets, they showed me an old e30, cant rememba the reg but it had like dark grey carpet so i bought it and cleaned it up and put it in, so i guess the closest you gonna find is dark grey carpet, which looks very similar to black n e way!! good luck

I would have thought with an old bath tub and some dye it could be done, I have an old bath tub do you think if I did a set there would be demand for them? on an exchange basis assuming your carpet is in good condition.

I'd have to come up with some way of heating it up!!! Hmmm big bonfire under a metal bath!

Here in South Africa, our 325iS Evo's came out with Black carpets and headliners ... I'm just gonna dye my carpet when I get 2 that point, and use vinyl spray on the headliner

Anthrazit, lhd only i believe, p/n 51 47 1 933 411 US550:

Oh and my SA 325iS came with a black headliner and a grey carpet, damnit!

[dazleeds]

my tech 1 has a very dark grey
and everything else is definate black rooflining etc

think the dark grey is the nearest youll get

altho it really does look black unless you start getting picky and looking really close

[Widge]

Thats an anthracite black one

[FfiFfi]

We could either cover the existing one with Porche black carpet which is what we use in all of our interiors..

Or..we could tailor make you a new one with Wilton..They'd all have leather bound edges..

Failing that..dye the existing one..

Oooh, sounds expensive!!

Any rough idea of price on the porsche/wilton options??

[FfiFfi]

Well you do get what you pay for....

Porche from £299+

Wilton from £499+

[FfiFfi]

I guess it all comes down to whether or not you want the best or not..

We are not the cheapest but not the most expensive either..

If you were to see some of the work we have produced and evenmore so the work we are produing at the moment ready for Max you would see we are value..

We only ever use Porche Carpet and Wilton as its the best..
Same with our leather..we only use Nappa imported straight from germany and genuine alacantara too.

We believe if a jobs worth doing its worth doin right..

We don't use kits..everything is hand made to measure..

But at the end of the day..each to their own and you get what you pay for..

[Widge]

TBH I think that's about right for Porsche / Wilton.

[FfiFfi]

If you wanna drop me your email addy i'll show ya..

[bootyman]

Why dont you do my car and then all can see what it's like in E30 Ffi?

[bootyman]

Cream in the Rieger and i dont know what's in the Motorsport. Black i guess as it came with black bubble leather so would look odd with anything else

[FfiFfi]

Of course..that'll be £1200 to you..lol

Just kiddin..we'll sort you out..

[bootyman]

Whoo. Ffi i dont mind you sorting me out, but i heard of Vin the balck Mamba and frankly i dont want him anywhere near me

[FfiFfi]

Hahahaha..

He's gonna love that..he'll probably do them for free for you for that comment alone..

Just kiddin so don't quote me..lol

[bootyman]

Woman you keep getting me excited and then making me pack ICE down there so please stop it

[FfiFfi]

Well I got just the thing to sort that right out....

I'm gonna hire this bloke to do your doorcards....hahahahahahahaha
