Chim Carpet Volunteer Required

[andy-w]

Hi,

I am after a volunteer.
I have made up full carpet templates for Chims and Griffs...i am currently replacing the carpets in my car and everything is going very well...

I am after someone in the North (preferably)who wants their carpets replacing to work with me and make sure the carpets are easy enough to fit and to follow the instruction sheets to make sure they are easy enough to follow...i have posted on the North East forum but have not had any replies so far.

All you have to do is supply the carpet that you would want to use and then spend a saturday or sunday round my house getting high on glue fumes and fit the carpets once they are made....

If anyone is interested drop me a mail for more details.
This will not just be a set of floor mats...we are talking a FULL carpet set including door cards, parcel shelf, the whole lot with bound edges.

Cheers

Andy

Hello TD and TVR Moneypit,

I will get some pictures posted up as soon as i have finished my carpets...the trouble is i never took any before pics so there is nothing to compare to...that is why i am after someone else so i can get some before and after pictures and post on here.

Wasnt sure what to do with the edges on mine but have decided to go with That Daddys advice and have grey edging (I didnt use carpet on my door panels either, perforated black leather to match the seat and center console bolsters ). I have just finished recovering the seats (sewing the TVR logo into the headrest is a pig of a job) and used silver stitching so the grey should compliment this and all the stainless in the car.

EFA Hi Andy, can't believe no one on here or in the North East has taken you up on this.

Strange eh?

Hows that griff going?
You still havent popped round to show me although i got a glimpse of it in DH carpark...i might have to come for a spin over to chester...

I know mate, I'll pop round soon. Anyhoo back on topic. Are you going to sell full kits once you are sorted? I was quoted £1k for a trimmer in Sunderland to carpet a Griff

Yup full kits...including inside the cubby holes behind the seats...parecel shelf rear bulkhead...the whole lot...!

What color are you after...?

1K is just obscene...

It was for a Griff I didn't buy

Hi all.

I had a full set of TVR quality carpets fitted in my Griff for less than £600 by D & C Trim in Blackpool.
Ex TVR trimmers excellent job for a competitive price. I read about them in the sprint magazine.

Hi Andy

I'm up in sunny er, damp Morpeth, don't need new carpets just yet but when I do I'll definately give you a call

[jim.2007]

i'm in teesside how much is it roughly for the carpets? could be interested as it is one of a few jobs on the list!

Did this myself early year and used evostick spray impact adhesive. DOH! Bloody stuff softens in the heat. Use high temperature impact for doubly confidence Very satisfying and rewarding DIY job.

ERR looks like you need to supply the carpet. So anything you like. If you get Andy to do it let me know, I might pop round
