Well...let's just say that i can probably rip all of the carpet out of my car with ease because it doesn't stick anymore...I can flip a piece of the carpet back and see what's under it...the frame of the car I think. Does this help?

So then what do you suggest that I do to get this fixed? Is there a place where you can get it professionally done or should I just get ghetto and pull out the super glue??

hmm see if any of the push rivits are missing.... ther wil be a whoe int he carpet there they went through and into the body.... if you find any missing make a run up to Lowes... they have them.. where the bit drawrs of bolts and screw etc... ... they have an automotive drawr and thats what it in..... if and you cant find any push rivits dont glue it u dull when ull need to pull it back up.... might be good off making another push rivit whole... but u will have to second that with someone on here.... be drilling a whoe in the body... and making a tiny whole in the carpet and pushing one throught... make sure u make it right tho becuz its a pain in the ass to get them out....

I was gonna invest in some of those racing seats...some black ones....those would look nice in my car but I think it would look funny with a stock backseat...what do you guys think?

racing seats look fine with stock back seats just as long as the colors match or blend. you could always have your rear seats re-upholstered or even order new ones. or you could go audio style and just get rid of them all together and replace with subs

Ha ha ha...you're sayin to just remove the backseat completely and put subs in place of the backseats?? That is something to think about...but I know that I am always giving people rides and I do get groceries so I dont know about all that...I would have to get gray racing seats though....any websites anybody's been to with this kind of stuff?

dont get seats from pep boys... most companies who make racing seats offer them in a variety of colors.
Try www.sparco.com www.recaro.com (I'm not sure those are the right sites but those are the company names "Sparco" and "Recaro" and both of those are really good seats so just see what you can get with those) |
