got bored.. again
when i have free time, i seem to try and use my carpet up, i bought 3 rolls of this stuff and spent 60 bucks. been sittin in the garage for about a year now, so i decided i would put it to good use. i carpeted the underside of my hard tonneau cover. it wasn't wide enough, so it has a line going from front to back all the way down where the two pieces meet
 .. anyway, it started off just regular carpet, and ended up with flames on each side going back to front.. i think it looks good, i got it done tonight, and will post some complete -done- pictures of it.

If you use a carpet glueing thingy (I use it for carpets when I install them, burn myself on the thing every single time...) it will make sure that seam doesn't split, and if you push it in and together well enough it can get pretty hard to see the seam...

I would have tried to put the line in the middle...so it was symetrical...but those flames look good
