I think he wants a roll of carpet but all he has found is molded carpet. He's going to cover two panels he made for his nitrous bottle (like the rear seat delete panels on ebay that are two boxes one for each side of the "hump" covered in grey carpet. Unfortunately, I don't know where they got that carpet from.

I'm about to trash the stock seats and put new carpet in with kirkeys. I found some carpet at home depot that would work very well. Very sturdy yet very light and cheap. They had it on a big 12ft wide roll in the back. Cream, blue, or charcoal. They said like $35 for a 12x6ft piece.

I told the lady what I was going to do with it and she said it would mould very easily with a steam or heat gun. I'm trying to figure out who can dye it for me...I want it bright RED. So i'll get someone to bleach it then hit it with red. But thats where I'm going here in a couple weeks. I'll keep you guys posted.
