We are trying to integrate a function into the website to manage this directly on the website. For now we are taking names and requests. PM me what you want and your contact info. We stock the materials for most all the carpets right now so if it’s one of the more common ones it’s just a matter of processing. I’d guesstimate turn around right now at about 2 weeks.

I purchased a carpet kit (not 914rubber, btw) about 2 years ago, I guess. I planned on installing it immediately, but life got in the way

The kit sat until this summer when I was ready to install it. When I did, some things didn't line up. There were a few small fitment issues, but the biggest issue was the construction of the side pieces.

The cutouts around the crossmember were not wide enough and no way to compensate for it short of cutting the carpet and trying to restitch the binding. I chose not to do that. Looks like ass, but with the seats in place, most people won't notice. It was simply poor attention to detail and nobody checked it before they got put into inventory.

After two years, no point in complaining.

Two lessons:
1. You get what you pay for with carpet, I guess.
2. Check things thoroughly when you receive them.

Bringing samples to WCR will hand out to anyone who wants one.

I want some. Silver car, probably black interior. And probably want to replace the felt in the red car that will be there.
