Default floor mats

im sick of using floor mats that dont fit!!! so I made 1



I got some carpet the same colour as my interior, made a template, cut it out (fits like a sock on a ducks lip!) then took it to the local carpet shop to get the edges bound

the woman did a good job of the binding



ill get the passenger side and the rears done this weekend hope fully

depends on carpet cost. once the template is done there quick to make. the binding was a few £££

I got a role of carpet from the car boot sale 3£ for about 4m by 1m. I don't think it had ever been used. its good hard wearing stuff to

the only prob is it will need to be rubber backed as its a bit light and will prob curl at the edges. maybe Velcro ?
