There has been a topic on moulded mini carpets before somewhere.

I personally wouldn't ever get another one. I think mine was from Trufit. I know it was in Knox here in Melb.

I don't think anything fits as well as a trimmer made carpet. I also think that nothing looks more untidy in a mini that a carpet that doesn't sit properly.

yeah i know , i think i will just get the carpets done at the same time as the rest then , but jan, did you try to fit it into your inport?

JAM has an Exactfit brand moulded carpet set (front/rear) and I think it does the job real well. I am happy with it, but for Pops I am seeking something as per original spec (ie: not moulded)

Each to their own......

I have used moulded carpet in mine. I am happy with the finished product, I had do do some custom trimming at the door edges and it bubbles in places however for the price compared to a custom jobbie you gotta be happy.

No, I didn't use it on my import. I used to have a Clubman GT which I fitted the moulded black carpet into (or tried anyway).

I think the extra for the trimmers work is well worth it in the long run.

I will in time be having my trimmer replace the carpet in the Rover I have bought.

i have an exactfit moulded carpet aswell.
it doesnt fit flush, but i have about 2 inches thick of sound deadener and well it was just put in there as a replacement from the really bad stuff i had in there.
cost me nothing basically so i just chucked it in

dr trim, you an actual trimmer??? If so, how much would you ay getting a front seat retrimmed would cost in leather?>

no im not an actual trimmer.
im a motor trimmer apprentice
never the less i can still produce pretty good work (i have someone very experienced who can do the sewing for me if i wish).


to tell you the truth i haven't explored leather yet, i have endeavoured to call a few places in the past few days about leather supply.
it all depends on how much the leather is gonna cost me, to how much i charge you
i wouldn't think anything under $300 per seat in full leather. it's VERY DEMANDING work. that being im always up for negotiations my prices are far from final. make an offer i may just budge
