Carpet question
Hi All,
I have another thread going on about speaker boxes and I ended up making one for my 80'. It came out pretty good, sounds great, fits well and it just drops in so no modifications needed. The problem is the color. I would love to wrap it doeskin to match my interior but where can I find the correct color and pile without buying a pre-cut floor section? Basically where can I find raw carpeting?
Thanks,
Sam

Sam, try going to an auto upholstery shop. Some of them should have oem carpet leftovers, they might not be exact, but they might come close. Or they might even be able to order a yard or two of the carpet from one of their suppliers. Lots of them make OEM colors. Good luck.
