Carpet Panels
Our Delica – a GLX model – came just with plastic trim, which wasn’t the most comfortable looking finish. Also as I took the side panels and headliner off to gain more interior space, sheet metal got exposed.
Looking around for different options to cover everything in a nice way, I came across a thin Indoor/Outdoor carpet at Home Depot. The 6′ x 8′ rug has no backing material which made it very flexible to wrap around corners. After testing a few different ways to glue the carpet down, I went with Contact Cement.
Beside the strong fume, working with Contact Cement was straight forward. Just make sure your pre-cut piece of carpet fits perfectly, as there is no way you can adjust the position once both surfaces touch each other.
After about 6 liters of glue, 1.5 rolls of carpet and about 30 hours in total, the panels were all covered.
