ANY BUYING/SELLING IN THIS FORUM WILL RESULT IN AN INSTANT BAN!

Read the rules: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=43956

Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

Beginner Forum Rules - EVERYBODY read! (old and new members alike!)

Beginners start here. Once you have 30 worthwhile posts (off topic doesn't count) you may post outside of the Beginner forums. Any "whoring" (posting simply to raise your post count) will return your count to 0, or result in a ban.

These are the rules. Read them. Live by them.

1) Absolutely NO flaming! "Flaming" is an outright attack on a member. ALL questions are encouraged to be asked here, no matter how basic. Members with over 30 posts will be subject to a ONE WEEK ban if caught flaming in this forum (and yes, moderators can read deleted posts). Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.

2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.

3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.

4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.

The rules can and will be added to. Any updates will be marked in the title.

The rules for the overall forum can be found here:

    Since its the carpet, you might just be better off getting a after market one. I've seen them for our car, price was reasonable. IIRC it was in a JC Whitney catalog.
    wat?

      Dye is cheaper, plus its black so if you mess up, it shouldnt show, but if you dont feel like getting messy or screwit up....



      www.TASauto.com has some and.....theres another place..i forget. I think NAiL05 posted it. They have pre-molded carpet for like $120-$150.

        I'd replace the whole carpet. Nothing looks worse than an attempted dye job on an old, worn carpet! You'll have light spots where there isn't as much material to hold the dye.

        $150 isn't all that much to spend for a brand new pre-molded carpet... I've seen them as low as $100, even. Of course, don't get crap... it'll be worth it to pay for a good one!

          here's some places to consider if you buy new carpet:

          www.accmats.com

          http://www.tasauto.com

          if you do decide to dye, then remember to use the RIT bleach first, then use the RIT dye. otherwise it won't come out right. later.
