Step 1 - Collect an obscure collection of skanky Z3 floor mats



Step 2 - add a bit of cardboard and stitch together



Step 3 - admit you have a problem

Might damage your Z

I reckon that you could rent it out to the Queen while Buck Palace gets renovated!

Bet that's the first time your garage has been empty for a while?

Yep,just about to fill up with furniture whilst we have some building work done.

No zed's first time in a long time, usually have one waiting on the drive!

You may well laugh but I've been in my loft this week and found 5 lots of carpet off cuts from over the 30odd yrs here and decided they got to go, all brand new carpet but slightly dusty and after laying on my garage floor last winter I've decided to do just that, turn it into a palace, yep what a great idea spurs fan, don't matter if I spill oil or coolant on it and my knees will thank me too. Could even take a sleeping bag and pillow round there when it's done, get the misses jealous in the process.

Good stuff, I'm going to carpet mine now!

Put some on the walls too where you open your doors to get in and out of your Zed

BMG and me could share idea's to see which garage turns out best, as for carpet on the walls Jack I've already got polystyrene and tape marks up to stop doors getting chipped and reversing too far hitting the hard top. It's not that I can't reverse more like poxy garage too small.( that's my excuse and sticking to it.) Already damaged front near side bumper last year after moving a lone concrete block forgetting it was there in my way instead of putting it back out the way. My son was there and still gives me stick over this every time he comes round to my garage, told the misses not to tell him when I'm round there. Ha ha ha.

And line the walls with door cards and you've got a winner! JIM

You mean it isn't already carpeted?? Don't tires get concrete dust on them without? Must drive you crazy!! Get out there and fix that, maybe do the drive at the same time for when you push it out for photo ops and push it back in again!! lol JIM

Have decided not to use the carpet BMG, going all ECO, walls, floor, ceiling, cost still nil just a bit of plant feed.
