So i took all damn day installing the new carpet. I prolly could have done it faster if it wasnt 34 degrees outside. :( It looks really spectacular, and feels like whole new truck. I really wish i had new seats. Oh well, they will come one day. I'm also bagging this in a few days.

My notch, bridge, rear mounts, front mounts and line should be here Monday, and my 4link later in the week. My front bags (Slam re7's) are on back-order and should ship out mid next week. I already have my slam re8's, compressor, pressure switch, water trap, 8 valves, tank, solenoid and wiring. Just need some fittings to have everything. I'm gonna pick them up local when we start working on it. I'm gonna be on vacation from the 12-18th of February and installing everything then.

Incase youre wondering why its so bad, I bought this truck about 2 years ago with intentions of bagging it. It was my dads DD until he bought his NBS. Then it became a work truck, and i havent cleaned it at all since i bought it. It has sat for a little over 4 years.

looks good! Makes me thankful my truck came with the navy interior because dirt doesn't show so easily.

You've inspired me to do a complete interior teardown when I detail my truck in the spring. I didn't know a shift boot could look that good.

Nice work and it looks 100% better. That looks like the same exact color I ordered from Stock Interiors and installed in my Silvy.
Is that color #8078 Dark Grey Quartz
I layed some hush mat down on the floor before installing mines.
