Default has anyone replaced their carpet?

i was wondering if any one has replaced their carpet in their car. If so how much did you pay, where did you get it from ,and how well did it fit?

I removed every seat but the drivers, vacuumed, and took my car up to a local car wash and had them do a carpet treatment...Could not believe at how well all the stains came out.

Turned out better than I thought it would and saved me from having to purchase new carpet.

all black carpet, $220 from autointeriors.com i believe. Not the finished product in these pics, but the only ones I had during install. I had to take it out and trim a couple times for it to fit. Worth it though

How hard is it to replace the whole carpet anyway? I'd love to do that on my car.

I still need seat covers and the door panels and all the tan will be gone.

Looks good. Truthfully I don't mind the lighter shade of tan (my car has the lightest, being an '00) I think the black/graphite carpet looks good with the tan seats/door panels. Many newer cars have a similar color combo (Chrysler 300's for example)
