I have done many jobs on cars but re doing the trunk felt/carpet was a big pain in the ass.

That looks really good. What material did you use? It doesn't quite look like felt. How many different pieces were required to cut and fit?

Hi, Thanks and I am happy!. It is in felt and pretty sure it is close to the original. That is the same thickness and quality/look. Bought a roll out of Germany and it took a few tries to get the right material. I used the same number of pieces (5) as the original but cut the floor piece in two at the front bulkhead to make the glue down easier. (spray glue and some brush on for retouches and lots and lots of masking)

Looking at the original, at least on my car, the quality was "done fast"..if thats possible and not great. Kills the back this one...

+1 on the "kills the back" Looks really good.

Currently reassembling mine now. Closing the hood the first time was a little nerve racking even with a back up cable. 🫣😁
