<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/5426/carpet_close_up.jpg"></center><p>Now the carpet was purchsed from Scottys..
49 cents a sq ft
I bought 5x13....Cashier messed up and charged me for only 5 feet eg 5x .49cent...Total cost was 2.50 oops
Anyway..the weave is close....colors isnt offensive and can hopefully be dyed to a closer match to the Audi color.

Me too...but trying to get this stuff from Audi is rough...and for 2.50 I cant complain
And even If I dont like it..It sure beats looking at nekkid plywood.
I just hope sourcing a dye wont be too much of a task..
BTW 11 days and counting eh? =D

That shot says it all. For what you paid, source the real stuff from Audi
.... and use this 'til it comes. Your car is too nice to accept that color and texture variation. Dye won't do it. Even if you get the exact color match, the coarser weave and texture will reflect light differently.

Although I am going to contact Martyn in the UK and see what he could come up with...
