Hey All,

I am planning on finishing out my trunk this year. But, instead of using the vinyl checkerboard, I want to use black interior carpet. Also, my friends wife does embroidered logos in carpet. So, I'm gonna have the XR-7 logo embroidered in the middle.

Has anyone done this before? I'm a little lost on measuring out the carpet and cutting it to fit. If anyone has any suggestions or hints, I would sure appreciate it.

Thanks

grab some cardboard and practice cutting that till you get the right fit! That sounds like it will end up looking real good! Specially if you customize it with the logo.

Or, if you have it, the old trunk mat would be a good pattern (if it still fits reasonably well).

sounds like this "pathetic" (WCCC's words, not mine), repro plaid mat would be a good template:
