Ill take a pic and show you tomorrow. Plus I don't know where to stop the liner at. Just slightly under the panels where the carpet would normally end right?

Drill your own drain holes? Maybe? Just a thought, put plugs in them to seal it up and loosen to drain, I'm likening it so far, keep it up!

Started lining today
Started with the cargo space. then worked to the passenger side, and then the drivers.
took a lot longer than i wouldve liked but its coming out pretty nice. needs a couple more coats though.
also from washing the driver side footwell got pretty rusty as youll see in one of the last pics, frank says i should get rustfix, like a clear spray paint that dissolves rust. then line after that, so the drivers footwell isnt touched yet.

All thats left is the drivers footwell (put 3 coats of duplicolor rustfix on it so i havent started lining yet) and the plastics can go back in along with the seats. feelin anxious.

also, lucas and i headed to the auto salon

i like how the cargo area came out the best.

you can see in the front theres a shiny spot, thats black spray paint. we masked off too low for the bedliner lol. oh well thats easy enough to fix i just have to do it is the problem lol. spraypaint works fine for now.

so my only complaints with not having the carpet is really just the center console doesnt fit right. to elaborate, there is a gap between the bottom of the console and the actual floor. I think ill go to a craft store or idk somewhere and buy a foam strip to put all around the bottom to make it look better.

other than that i have no complaints. no sound issues. sounds exactly the same as when the carpet was in there. people say that heat and ac take forever to feel because theres no more insulation but honestly it feels the same to me. all in all im happy. and damn proud of myself lol


in other news, heres a pic of my headunit
