Man, I dare say that this is worse than pulling the engine.
I rarely dont finish projects I start. I started today asround noon and worked until 9:00 pm and still wasnt finished. I have a few odds and ends left. Oh and my passenger seat is still out also. But the black carpet that I got from Fritz is really nice. I shampooed it last night so It is nice and clean too. Anyway here are the pics. http://www.fd3boost.com/album/userim...f4f7eda5f9.jpg |

Damn. That looks like it sucked. I've got black carpet just waiting on me to put in myself. Keep me informed on any tricks!
|
wow, that looks like a hell of a lot of work, i think i liked rx7trix's method better
|
Well putting it in wasnt the hard part, getting everything out to get the new stuf in is whats a bitch.

Like I said, I didnt get to finish. It got dark so I had to get my seat in and drive home from my parents house (Im 27, married and I still work on my car at my parents house. Sad isnt it, LOL)
http://www.fd3boost.com/album/userim...2b68a9916f.jpg So now Im just waiting for the rest of my interior parts from Japan and I'll be all done. I feel sorry for anyone who has to change their carpet. It is not a fun job. |

Ya but that wasn't the factory black carpet was it? I checked the price for factory black carpet and it was $900 new. I couldn't find it anywhere else. I just ordered some black carpet and I'm going to cut and paste and hope for the best! Hopefully with the help of a friend that uphoslters on the side a little, it will look good...

I might have some to sell in a few days from a car that I might be parting out. I came across a red Fd with mods on it for about 5k that i may be buying. It has all black interior. I obviously would sell the carpet. |

Yes it is factory black caroet. I got it from Fritz Flynn. He parts out Fd's alot on the other forum.I bought this carpet from him a while ago but have not had the chance to pick it up until now. He lives about 3 hours from me so I went down a few days ago and got it. I payed $200 for it.

I am almost done. I just have to wait now. |
Looks great man. I wouldn't mind switching my interior from tan to black (seats too.. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...) but for some reason I want to keep it as original as possible, well.. certain things about the car..
|
Ya let me know if you run across any, I'd rather have the factory if it's in good shape. Luckily everything else is black but my seats and carpet. I still haven't decided on seats, not much of a leather person but I don't want to rice things up too much either...
|
Did you know that your dash is only held in by nine 10mm bolts? https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...DIR#>/ohmy.png

You should get these.. http://page4.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/d35666440 |
Good job Dave, NOW BUILD THE GARAGE!!! https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/bigok.gif

Dude you went way overboard. Took me about 2 hours to take it out and install the new carpet. Box cutters will cut the carpet in two so you don't need to take the whole dash off...who can see up under there anyways?
|
But you defenitly did a nice thorough job!

I agree about the seats, thats why I got the stock black cloth seats. Not the r1 seats but the cloth seats. They are badass.

Those seats are a little loud, well ok they are way to damn loud. As picky as I am, I'm going to have to see the seats before I get them. I do like the base model cloth seats but I'm going to wait on seats until I get a little more upgrades going under the hood.

It would of bothered me to have not done it that way. I enjoy knowing that my car was "done right: Thats just my sick mind anyway. |
