No matter how much brushing I do it still looks that way. I am about to redo the carpet in my project car so your comments and pics are timely.

Thanks Stan!

Great job! I might be interested in the old blue carpet material if the price is right. I have some tan door card inserts that I won't be needing although I like the top side of your doors all blue.

What a fantastic job, congratulation,s on your eye for detail !
Out of interest, as I have the same wheels on my 928S, do your rear wheels have spacers fitted ? I only ask as I have 17mm one,s at the moment, with a little rolling on the fender.

JB thanks new carpets do make a difference.
Aryan Mig is actually an aggressor F 5 from the Top gun school,
and its going straight up in the picture .
Ken this car had the factory wider spacers and they were swapped out for IIRC 8MM hub centrics the tires dont rub.

We put a black velour Budd kit into an 84 --- excellent quality. Transformational. Love it.

Great work, Stan.
