Really! Looks like I might need to have a chat to our trimmer to make sure our carpet templates are not used for the general public!... Thanks idr17!


Oh so you own the template (shape) for BMC and Leyland Mini carpet!! Gee that must have take years to develop!
Guys just take you old carpet to your trimmer of choice and ask them to make a copy, no breach of copyright... LOL
No wonder most of us purchase our spares direct from Mini Spares in the UK and save over 50% with your attitude.


Hey Ian,
Do you not think I have the 'right' to protect my interest? Whilst we don't own the BMC carpet template our trimmer sure makes a few of them for us (with our template)- I have spoken to him and he assures me that he will not 'cut our lunch'.

Last time I saw you I said "hi", I even was talking to you about your house renovations... and all was fine- I didn't know you had an issue with me or Minisport?

Anyhow, we are doing fine.

Take care, and you never know, I might see you down at the woodcroft shops :P

Sorry to have created the above mess but while you are here Andrew, just wondering if the carpet sets are an easy fit or do you recommend someone doing them to make it right? It was easy enough to pull my old ones out but they were nowhere near as nice. I only raised this subject to see how others had gone but guess I should have just called you.

Hey Flute,

If you want someone to fit them get Straightline in Bayswater.

They did Dad's interior on his Cooper and have amazing attention to detail.

Thanks for that. Yours dad's car is amazing so I will keep that in mind. I am planning on getting my trimming done there so maybe just hand them the carpets at the same time. Cheers.

Guys I use Lee Brothers in Albion QLD. I gave the boys an original carpet set to use as a template. They do an amazing job and are WAY cheaper than alternatives on the market. I have a set in Paddy if anyone wants to know what they look like.
If you call them ask to speak to Shayne. Tell him Greg sent you and he will use my templates.

Thanks for that , they quoted $990 :D
