Carpeting the rear

[Dougie clarke]

Spent the last couple of days boarding and carpeting the rear of the van 

Not the easiest job in the world ,but makes a big difference to the warmth inside and looks loads better , still not quite finished , got the floor to do and a couple of sides on the sub and speaker boxes 

So far I've used around 11meters of the four way stretch carpet

Is it soundproof? If some was in the back of the van, screaming, would the cops be able to hear?

Brilliantly soundproof when used in conjunction with duct tape and cable ties ,

You could paint your van 50 shades of grey.

Is that the "four way stretch" carpet? Supposed to do a lot of weird shapes with that if you're careful.

 

Plan here is to just do some carpet inserts in the big flat sections and paint the rest. Got a six pack of that new DupliColor lumpy paint that's supposed to give you kind of a naugahyde surface depending on how thick you put it on. You can also peel it off for a few months if you decide you don't like it.

Looks nice.  Impressed with how you got it over all the surfaces.
