    Default Boot carpet

    Just wondering if it is possible to get your boot carpet ripped out and replaced, and like..sealed down to the boot or something. my ciurrent carpet is not attached to the floor(not any more i guess) and its looking ****ty as hell. I wanna get it replaced and fixed up before i put my subs in.

    Im in WA, if anyone knows a place that would be great.

    I imagine all you'd have to do is take out the current lining and use that as a template. Put some chunky heavy-duty padding underneath it. I've been meaning to do this since I got my car, but you know... cbf.

    VN Berlina carpet is all fine and attached reasonably well to the floor base.

    Unless 10 years of the-leaking-tail-light has been allowed to collect underneath it, and develop into a new natural water table.
