Hay guys

I just got my car re-carpeted but I'm not that happy...

The carpet guys said there should be a plastic thingy that sits over the ECU and likewise on the other side that covers that area so the carpet doesn’t look half done

Here's a pic not of my car but to show the spot, my new carpet doesn’t cover that area much and it looks crap!!

Now dose this plastic thingy exists or are they full of shit?

Thanks heaps guy

man that is too much for a complete carpet for a eg should be between 150-180
i just sold my black plush pile for $150
i would be taking it back to get fixed it should cover all the way past your ecu. Good luck with it

$480 including install plus I did’t have the old carpet for them to use a template

All fixed now anyway

The rest of the job is great
