on that I honestly would recommend looking at some local fabric stores. I work in a fabrication shop where we use lots of different fabrics, and we get all of ours at a store called B & H Fabrics in Eugene. I recommend looking at a place like that since they have every possible fabric I can imagine, and that really wouldn't be that difficult to do yourself. Just good old labor Best of luck!

The best idea would to take a look in the classified section of this forum. People are always parting out cars, so it would be likely that someone has good carpet they're looking to sell.

I bought some black, front and rear carpeting from a guy in the Chicago area and had it shipped over to where I live (Seattle). I think I paid around $200 for it. It was pretty nasty when it arived, (like there was chocolate milk and motor oil spilled on it?) but suprisingly, after I steam-cleaned it and used "Oxy-Clean" it's now in nearly mint condition.

Don't bother with new 'molded' carpeting from (like) Victoria Brittish or whatever... All reviews I've heard have been negative.

the only difference would be if its 2+2 or not.

When I converted my old N/A s5 interior to black I got a carpet through my windshield supplier, it was a very nice package, moulded carpet, sections for over the seat belts, sections for over the bolts for the seat rails, two pieces for the lids on the stow. bins, and a seciton for the rear....$485 canadian, the carpet suppliers name I would have to look for, but I can get it if your interested...pm me

if your talking about the back carpet thats an easy fix. buy a roll of auto carpet from your local parts store.. in the color you need. now take out your old back carpet. unroll the new carpet on the ground and set the old carpet on top of it. now just cut out the contour of the old carpet and you should have an exact match (you might have to do it in 2 sections... where the metal strip runs across b/t the rear strut towers) and then get some ribbon or edging and get someone to sew it on around the edge of all the carpet... mine looks awesome... looks like it came from the factory.

i dont know about aftermarket but if you get to find the stock carpet then it's a breeze. take out the bins, place the carpet down, and screw/clip down the carpet, put the bins back and you're done
