Ugly Door Carpeting? Not In My Ride!

So I've had this done for a long time, just figured i'd post some pics to show people how it turned out and include the walkthrough in case some other people wanted to do it. Lemme know what you think.

Before

After

After Again


When I was doing that I also covered up the glove box, god it was ugly looking.

Before:

After:


Always give credit, this is where I got it from. A great walkthrough
I didn't do the carpeting because I heard that fades after a few months, and I don't wanna rip it out every few months to re-dye it.

I think I seen a thread on NICO awhile ago with pictures of your car and showing how you took off the door carpeting. As soon as I seen the pictures I went outside and spent a little quality time with my car and took off that carpeting. I must say I love it so much more without the carpet there. Now I just gotta get around to rewrapping the glovebox with vinyl.

Yeah, I hoped it would help inspire others to get rid of that ugly carpeting, I hate how it makes the car look like carpet everywhere instead of the sports car look that I envision.
I can't remember if I posted it on Nico before, perhaps. I try and stay away most of the time from the site because for the most part it's people that couldn't tell a header from an alternator, lol. Although don't get me wrong, I still visit it because there are many useful knowedgeable people. My buddy is a Mod there and he says they are slowly redoing the site.
