Thanks....You know it would suck to have let $100 carpet hold back a $25k or more set up..

lol..

my stock carpet is pretty torn up and pretty dirty. i have been thinking about getting one of these.. http://www.accmats.com/ i see their advertisements in lots of magazines


*edit* well it says their kits are 212, but it only has two door coupe and 4 door sedan, so the coupe might not work? i haven't ever checked to see if they were different / longer, does anyone know?

I ripped my carpet out in my old hatch that I was building for SPTFWD, I used $20-$30 of speaker box carpet (very very lightweight) and spray glued the whole interior and then just took the carpet and cut it out. Was easy and cheap. It must have weighted like 4-5lbs for all of it.

so what weight reductions are legal in SFWD? all the underhood and undercarriage, and suspension ones?

sorry, but SFWD = SPFWD = SPTFWD, right? (all three terms are used here)
