    Carpet question

    The piece of carpet in the rear window shelf is faded, was red, now pink, and I want to replace or recolor. Has anyone done this, and if so, where did you find replacement carpet that is molded to the shape, or dye to return to original color? Thanks for any help.

            DupliColor is usually carried in the big box parts places - Advance Auto, Autozone, maybe even Walmart or Kmart. You can also check with local bodyshops for the location of their supply houses to find SEM products.
