Do you realize the painstaking process and number of hours it takes to seamlessly replace the carpet to the rubber bottom? This is easily a 7 hour job, and makes the supercharger install look like a light bulb change. Plus it's a hazardous work environment that needs a considerable investment in safety gear. You think fiberglass is tough? Check out those carpet fibers...man, you could really get some nasty rug burn on this job! Thick gloves will do the trick, but you'll go through quite a few. and don't forget it could be a very dirty & dusty environment, I mean who knows what he's been stepping in...full respiration gear would be in order. In fact, better get a full Hazmat suit while you're at it.
