What's The Deal With Carpets Ey?

[aircobra]

here's a quick Q&A - what's the deal with the carpets?

been all over this forum and everyone's bagging all the suppliers

personally, i've been calling rob from zfactory for 6 months to source some carpets and every week he tells me - next week

can anyone recommend any reliable suppliers

looking for "original spec" carpets

thanks

I don't know of a single good carpet kit for a 240z/260z that is currently available and is "original" - I think the original carpets are loop pile.

Rare spares offer a kit (no idea how good it is).

According to Zhome.com

Q: Was the original carpet loop, or cut pile?

 

A: - It was a black nylon loop

 

I believe the carpet in HS30 00150 was "original" and I should really take close photos of it.

ok, i'll try aussieclassics and jag_parts ( on ebay)

I used http://www.all-car-carpets.com.au

 

Like Gav says it's a modern style car carpet rather than factory style. Took them a few weeks but definitely not the 6 months that some have had with aussie classics
