Carpets - specalist or lotus? ( I maybe selling the esprit )

[Shanesprit]

Does anyone have experience of aftermarket carpets over the Lotus ones?

I also intend to change the carpet coulour to black?

Car is red with cream seats

And what is an early Stevens esprit NA worth?

Thanks in advance

I changed them on my Turbo Esprit and I'm halfway through changing to black on our S4s, using a SJ sportscars set. They are generously sized so you can trim them down for a good fit. I used high temp spray adhesive, not the brush on stuff SJ sell.

Just take your time and it's quite a simple job.

 

One thing I should mention is we were quoted 3 weeks delivery from SJ, actually took 6 weeks.

Check this guy out. While is primary is Porsche 928's, he did some floor mats on a group buy for us which fit perfectly and he also did a whole carpet kit for me too.

 

Nice guy to work with and fast too!

Got my set from Coverdale and am very happy with it.  You can specify the colour of the edge binding/handbrake gaiter.

Hi can you tell me which of the 3 Coverdale ranges you brought as they have big price differences

[vintaylor]

Just got some samples from coverdale .. Looking at buying the blenheim range at £21 per running meter and using the old carpets as templates..

 

Believe it or not, no one sells grey automotive grade carpet in Malta :/

Hi Neil

Did you have any photos of the replacement job? Did the set include the boot or just the cabin?

I got the top of the range one, but the mid range option seemed pretty good from the samples. The cheap one felt a bit nasty. Boot carpets not included, but they did include pieces for the quarter light panels, took me ages to work out what they were.

I have photos, will post when i'm back from work trip.

I've just bought a carpet set for my Elite from Coverdale. Will post pictures when I receive them.

Hi Neil,

 

Are those slots for the handbrake and seat belts in leather on your new carpet set?

 

Kind regards,

Jacques

[ramjet]

Those don't look too bad Neil.

[Neil Potter]

Thanks ramjet, was hard work in the pedal box but took years off the "patina".

Jacques, the slots and handbrake gaiter are vinyl, like the edging. Worth asking them if they can do them in leather, they make to order and are helpful on the phone.

Thanks Neil.

 

Cheers,

Jacques.
