carpetting mad

bored to tears though i really ought to be mugging.

a couple of days ago, i obtained a roll of carpetlike material and decided to diy carpet the back of fiona.

this morning seemed as good a day as any. so i walked down to my mscp, drove up to a deserted level, removed everything from the back and got down to making myself handy.

i started by cutting out the front portion (i.e. the part in front of the sofa). ok. no pic of me cutting since i cant take a photo and cut at the same time. duh.



the problematic part was nearer the wheel-well. it doesnt look well cut but that's more because the wheelwell area is not flat but sloping up.


then it was the back, which was slightly easier to fit but had alot harder to cut thanks to all the curves. i neatened the edges then, it was in with the sofa. all done!


the front part with sofa in.


another shot of the front part


the back with all my stuff in place.

one last shot of the final outcome.
