    Would carpet help?

    Hi Guys,

    About 6 months ago I went through this trying to find new carpet for the Z32. Massive mistake, but I put a battery in my passenger front foot well and it fell over while driving. Killed the very nice carpet i once had in my zed.

    In the end, I purchased from a wrecker a AUS 2+2 set of carpets, which have a few extra holes for the rear seatbelt then a Japspect 2+2 but I never fitted it, (mat covering the scars at the moment)

    Would they be able to use this as a base? I'm in vic and wouldn't mind dropping it off, If i get time this weekend I'll try call Tru-Fit

    Cheers..Clint

    that would be tops if you could supply them with both the carpets without having to pull them out of the car.

    I'm keen on this. My personal preference is for as close to OEM as possible. And black, as it doesnt show marks etc.

    Make sure they do ALL the carpert in the car including trunk carpet and floor matts. I like these: [​IMG]

    Well, anyone have a 2 seater (the real zeds, 240z was a 2 seater) that they can put in to help out other 2 seaters?

    My Car was the same, brand new carpet, it wasn't OEM either, because it didn't have the plastic cover on the driver foot well

    But I would say this was installed while in Japan. If there is someone in AUS with the mold they are not doing a very good job of trying to sale it.

    I'll give tru fit a call on Monday, I have 2+2 and boot carpet i could supply. Also, i'm sure the could mod a 2+2 set of carpet to fit a 2+0

    Cheers..Clint

    Come on guys let's not waste this opportunity. All you need to do is call Geoff Costello on 03 9792 2333 and let's get it rolling.

    Those of you, including myself, who have good carpets are only one accident away from having very poor carpets and no easy way to replace them.

    Also for those who are changing interiors, once the mould is made you can get just about any colour you want, not to mention mats (with logo's) and I am sure they could organise the boot carpets to match.

    I don't want to harp about this but if we miss the opportunity I am sure we will regret it.

    A new member Ozbek zx has offered to go and see Tru Fit about the carpet and mats. Maybe we will get some joy out of this yet.

    mrkarter77 No Really, They do!!!

    Good news for those who need it, AFAIK mine has always had the Fairlady Z Proper mats in her, Under that its still like new, and no markings that i can see around

    :p Lucky me i say... But those mats are thick and take out a bit of floor space
