Quick carpet question
Can someone take a pic of where the front carpet stops? I will be using aftermarket carpet so that may be a factor too. Basically I'm trying to figure out how much painted metal shows between the front and back, if that makes sense? Thanks in advance!

Re: Quick carpet question
Any floor board that is still showing after the carpet is down is covered by the carpet strips.

Re: Quick carpet question
I thought the "step up" was not covered from the factory. Here is another post on the same type of question

Re: Quick carpet question
I got Trim Parts carpet for mine and they left enough so you could cover the step up if you wanted. I elected to trim it so it was just on the floor. Not real good pictures of it. I am a little disappointed that there is not a build thread of this blazer of yours.

Re: Quick carpet question
Mine from acc came bound on the back. It only covered the flat area of the floor. Didn't extend upwards at all.

I'll look into ACC, I'm wanting carpet that is bound at the rear like factory.

Re: Quick carpet question
That sucks about the SD card. Congrats on finding one with minimal rust that is hard to do. I am sure when you are done with it it will be top notch.
