Ok this may of been asked before and if so im sorry.

I know there are "how to's" for retrimming door cards and roof liners but has anyone ever retrimmed their floor carpet.

If so how easy was it and what material did you use?

You don't trim carpets, you replace them.

From what i've heard, marine grade carpet works pretty well and its waterproof incase anyone in your car is wet lol, might be tricky cutting it to fit though

I'm sure a carpet fitter (maybe one that specialises in boats) could help you, all the curves in the carpet would be a complete pain in the arse. If you trim it then it will quickly be ruined, I'd say dye it!
