A little project with parcel shelf...

Post by Fordoholic Nick »

Hi all,

Nothing over exciting really. I decided to replace the carpets in my parcel shelf that Andrew very kindly gave me some years ago. As nice as they were I wanted to fit Black carpets to give me a nice contrast with the grey shelf and it now links in better with the Grey/Black theme I been creating with my interior trim. Have to say am pretty chuffed how they turned out and the quality of the carpets is fantastic. Really nice deepish pile. Even have that lovely "new carpet" smell too :lol:

Thanks Andy. Hoping to get the interior back any day mate. Then just need to arrange collection when I am on my rest days. The seats were finished a few weeks back and just waiting on the door cards as the chrome trimming strips are being fabricated specially.

Looks good and it should match your new door cards beautifully.
