lightweight carpet Q's?
 

I have been reading threads on this and everyone is about either Ozite or Speed Inc's stuff.

Has anyone used Lowe's outdoor carpeting? It is 6' wide and can be cut to length at just about 5 bucks a linear foot. It also looks a little tuffer than the Ozite carpet also.

I didn't use lowes. But I did use the stuff from Menards and it works great.

any pictures?

You talking about the green stuff that they use for miniature golf!!!LOL On a serious note the ozite is what i use and looks great.

How's it holding up?

no it looks just like carpet black and gray. Next time you are there check it out. I am going to try it and i will post pics after i finish.

i went with speed's carpet ....it is molded so fitment is good and relatively quick install

I saw your post when i searched. I would love to go for that but at 100 bucks less for this carpet i can do both my cars and still have less than 100 into it.

i know what you mean .....money is tight for most of us right now :(

hmmm i might get some light weight carpet. Looks plush :lol: Mine looks flatened, and my car is not a DD..

Is there more road noise with the light weight carpet?

how much weight lose with the speedinc?

speed inc is about 12lbs where as your stock is about 43 i believe, less material = more noise.

more noise yes but if your considering lightening your car to go faster you are going to give up some .... mine is a 2900 lb light weight so i have a little more noise than most lol...

Here is the only pic I have of my Lowes carpet, sorry

where you find the ozite?

lowes dont have anything around here.

Walmart has it in 6x3 rolls, Lowe's and Home Depot has the outdoor carpet to which i am talking it is light and looks stock. I plan on picking some up this weekend. I have 10 bucks off so it is even cheaper!

look into spectra carpet from pep boys. comes in a 6'x9' roll

no Pepboys around here, the lowe's stuff come 6' wide and cut to length.

what section of lowes can this stuff be found at?

if the stuff is not molded how are you getting it to lay on the floor pan, there are curves and bends all over the place.
