Anyone know of any good fitting replacement floor carpets...?? not just the mats...the whole carpet

projectRDM · 02-28-2009, 12:00 PM

There's a few threads on here about aftermarket kits but personally the ones I seen are crap, they're not premolded, nor do they have any cutouts at all. Run a search and see what other people's experiences have been.

Theres ebay

DCP94 · 03-02-2009, 09:12 PM

you don't like the oem carpets? how much do these 'aftermarket' carpet kits go for?

DCP94 · 03-02-2009, 09:13 PM

you should do shag carpet in the 240! start a new trend

Flicktitty · 03-02-2009, 09:13 PM

i know where he is coming from, it's 20year old carpeting...time for an upgrade or a cleaner one...

Nissan 240SX Carpet Replacement Kit

DCP94 · 03-02-2009, 09:26 PM

^ thats the cheapest new oem carpet replacement that i could find also..and i was jk in the earlier post i understand them was jokes

Flicktitty · 03-02-2009, 09:50 PM

yeah, they "seem" to be pretty decent...

and i don't think Nissan still sells them..

you could make a WTB ad about looking for clean/good shape stock ones.

im in the same boat as u the carpet in my car sucks i think ur best bet is to find a oem one and clean it up good or dye it pignose carpets made with a harder materal seem to take abuse better chuki carpets are softer and tend to mess up easier
dont buy aftermarket carpets this shell i picked up had one and the fitment was crappy and just felt cheap in general

do you know what kind it was? that we no one makes the mistake?

P_856 · 03-02-2009, 10:23 PM

not sure it was red and looked ricy tho fitment was terrible i guess with some work you can make them look decent

btw a nice set of floor mats makes the interior looks alot better thats what ive been doing until i can find a nice carpet

dirteeboy808 · 03-02-2009, 11:08 PM

I just purchased and installed a black carpet kit with hatch carpet as well from stockinteriors.com and I love it. You have to trim the edges and cut the holes for the seats, trunk latch, etc, but that is true of pretty much any aftermarket carpet. It fit great and I am really happy with it. I used the same place for new carpet when I swapped my solara interior from tan to black.

Here is a crappy pic, but you get the idea:

I would for sure recommend them, cant beat it for the price!

ah yes, good call. But damn $600+

CamryOnBronze - That looks pretty good actually. i don't think cutting out a few holes for the seats and stuff is a big deal.

CamryOnBronze · 03-03-2009, 11:15 AM

Yeah, it really isnt hard to do at all. I will trim the sides near the door jam to fit the moldings and whatnot eventually, Im just waiting on my CDM seatbelt swap to get here so I can put it all back together. It is molded really nicely though and has a good texture to it.
