Ive heard numerous times on here, that when putting in new carpet in your car its best to have molded carpet for your specific car, because you would have to sew to the contours of the floor.
Well, I recently acquired an 85' corvette, that has alot of carpet, and alot of it needs to be replaced. I shopped online for molded carpet sets, andfrom what I found it runs about $600 for just the floor coverings!
I can't sew so sewing my own is out of the question, but is there a way for me to mold my own carpet to fit? I can buy carpet at a reasonble price, but of course its not molded. Could I maybe glue some type of rubber to the back and use a heat gun to mold it into the shape I want?
And for those of you that don't know how the carpet is in this vette, beleive me, there is a TON of stuff to mold it to in there!
Thanks
Brad
