Anyone know if BL/BP carpet will fit in a BE/BH?
Working on blacking out my interior and would prefer oem black carpet to dying/painting the grey/tan 3rd gen carpet.
The mats, or the carpet itself?
The floor mats should fit okay, just not perfectly. The carpet is very different, and is not interchangeable.

Carpet.
Can't find black oem carpet that fits a LHD car.
Considering everything else you've done yourself, I'm surprised you aren't willing to just dye the carpet. It was so easy, even I could do it.

I'm debating it. Just not sure how I want to go about it and mine isn't in great shape to start with.
Recently installed my JDM door sills and door cards. I have most of the plastics already painted black or picked up the black pieces from a JDM SE BH5. Working on a solution for the drivers controls and having fab work done for the Beatrush rear cage so I can wrap the headliner and put the interior back together.
New carpets can be had for fairly cheap. The Beige one is $160, the grey is $175.. since you would likely be dying it black, might as well save a few bucks with the cheaper beige one.

They even have free shipping on orders over $150!Originally Posted by rkrenicki
Do I try to Rit dye it? Or use something like dupli-color vinyl and fabric spray dye?
I am not sure if they will ship a carpet, I know they will not ship things like hoods or fenders, and this will be just about as large. My carpet came in a box 6 feet long, and almost 4 feet tall. But, then again, the carpets are not marked as non-shippable. I guess the worst they can say is no, and Milford isnt that far from you.
I have never dyed a carpet, Yama would be able to chime in with that one.

I contacted them about the shipping. The cost came up as ~$60, but the code wasn't working properly. They are about 1.5 hours each way from me.
For the code to work, you have to fill in your address and select "UPS Ground". It showed a discount of $65 for me once I filled it all in.

I thought I did it in the correct order. I'll try it again this afternoon. Thanks!
I ordered grey carpet yesterday. Planning to test out some SEM color coat on the old carpet and if it goes well, I'll spray the new carpet black with it. If not, I'll try the Rit dye method.
Things happened yesterday:
Dropped off BBS lips/barrels for polishing
Oil change
Transmission fluid change
Swapped in welded center diff
Initial impressions:
car drives much smoother than before (not that it was even a concern before)
acceleration seems to take less effort
cornering feels much lighter/easier
even in the rain breaking the rear end loose takes effort
I topped off with gas on the initial test drive, so in a couple weeks I can report back on how the mileage has been impacted.
Install went smooth and took a little over 2 hours start to finish.
JDM Door switches arrived today.
You can see the different sized front control panels and why they aren't interchangeable side to side. Plan is to cut out the mirror controls and mold them in place of the single window switch. Then relocate the master window controls with aftermarket switches above the coin tray.
Smaller panel is the USDM driver side (JDM passenger)
Wouldn't the folding mirror switch slot into the hole for heated mirrors on an Outback panel? Just paint the wood grain. Or am I missing something?

That is the panel that fits in the JDM front passenger door card (my front drivers). The JDM front door cards aren't both large panels like the USDM ones.
OOOOHHHH you have the JDM door cards now, forgot that makes total sense now.

Car is sitting for a while because I just had shoulder surgery. Might get some smaller rear tires because I'm rubbing on the side molding pretty bad. Or find someone to install my Megan rear camber arms for me.
Here is a shot while it was snowing last week:
Also, idle hands... been out of work for a couple weeks after having shoulder surgery, so I made my own Black Friday deals. lol
