Carpet Suggestions

Where is the best place to purchase lightweight, inexpensive carpet? Thanks, Ron.

if you are using it in an automotive application ---go to a full service auto upholstery shop and ask about Aircraft carpeting ---if you do put it in make sure you hem the edges and put edging on it otherwise the stuff will come apart/fray REAL easily---this stuff is so thin you can see thru it no problems at all and probably weighs 1/4 of what regular auto carpeting does---any other ??? get back to me--comp387

speaker box carpet works well also. but not very durable either, just use a floor mat.

You can order a custom molded light weight carpet from Auto Custom Carpets (ACC), I think they are in Georgia somewhere. They will mold it without any of the backing or sound deadening materials. I saved around 20 pounds.

we did a 67 camaro all the way up included the area where back seat was removed do not think we had anywhere close to 20 in the whole job--comp 387

I used stuff I bought in Pep boys. Cheap, Very light and doesn't look to bad.

Thanks, guys, for the suggestions. Got some at Pepboys(9ft x 6ft for $30.00) that should do the job. Ron.

It worked for me. Needed 3 rolls though.
