Default Umm - here's a stupid question (carpet)

Hey guys,
Im pleased overall with the condition of carpet in my 78 pace car. However the two pieces on each side that have carpet on them and little black vents, looks really bad. Im not sure what you call them but they are right next to where your calfs and ankles would be right before the door. Can I buy carpet just for this area? All places I have searched sell either the front or back carpeting or the whole car.
Can I just get a small amount so I can redo these poor looking pieces???? I need it to match so I dont even know if its possible, but I hate to shell out for an entire kit for two small pieces.

thanks

Rob

I think your talking about the kick panels. What color do you need I have a good amount of black left. If you need another color call wilcox they sell pieces of carpet as well as full kits.

I have been needing to pick up a drivers side kick panel with black carpeting. If you got one and its a reasonable price...I'd be up for buying it. PM me with the price if you have one available.
