Carpet advice eh?...!!

I tried to go down the pre-made route but honestly, now that its done, i really dont see how thats possible.

The large angular shapes of the interior, and large carpet areas make the job quite akward. This is the first time i've ever done carpeting, apart from covering a sub-box back in days of driving my Clio!

What are your carpets like? Can you get them out in big pieces? If so, coverdale will make them although in all honesty i would just get a roll of carpet and start from scratch!

Once you can put the pieces together on the car, trim to how you want to lay them (making notes as you go through) and send the pieces back to coverdale for them to bind the edges which you want.

If you have any questions, or want to call for a chat, feel pree to PM me.

Its not hard, but requires a lot of patience...!! You will be SO pleased when you finish!

I did my own from scratch which isn't difficult. I got my edges whipped at a carpet shop just to finish it all off. Cost £50 in all.
