Question Carpet for tailgate?

Anyone have carpet on the tailgate of your Blazer or Jimmy? Thought it might be a nice touch, especially with an embroidered 12" bowtie done in the same color thread as the carpet into the middle. The bowtie would apear correct looking at it from inside or outside, tailgate up or down. Might actually feel nice to park my big arse onto as well.

Can anyone sit on your tailgate and actually say if feels good? Even after 6 or 8 beers? What's with the metal rear window seal edge that is angled right into your hamstring? My god.

I have a custom panel on mine that matches the side panels.

Sounds like your Tailgate to Top seal strip is becoming a problem for you,
I'll gladly relieve you of these hamstring problems if you ship it to 38313
