    Pics of your interior

    Hi folks,

    The time has come to get the 5 back on the road and im a bit sick of the stripped out track interior. I'm looking for some inspiration as to what i can do.

    I dont want back seats maybe just some carpet or flocking (if they still do that)

    Anyway, if you haven't guessed already, im after some pics of your interior

    heres a few pics of mine so you can see what im dealing with.

    A cage that in a crash will save you not harm you more would be a good start,

    Have a look at phil5t's project as to his carpet/flocking ideas..

    Looks nice your motor dont need to do much

    Sell the cage and brace on ebay will make you £250 topps but its money in your pocket and you will be safer just my opinion before the bling kings shout at me.

    Then use it towards other things like the cage mike has for sale proper track/safe rear cage

    worlds your oyster

    was just some thin cheap carpet from my local carpet shop the guy said alot of people use it in there camper vans, reallt light weight too.
    it was on a 4m roll i took 3metres (4mx3m) as i was going to do the whole inside only cost £20 and couldve done it 3x over, yes i used carpet adesive (spray glue). it was a really simple job.

    thats a nice job you've done Car.Crash, the box is an awesome idea i think something like that will have to go in.



    EDIT: my mistake...

    another thing that is troubling me is my red front carpet. im unsure if red in the front and black in the back will look a bit silly and i dont fancy just red all the way through.
