They call it rust encapsulate spray and it has an attachable multi-spray nozzle for getting inside frame rails, etc. I am sure there are several others on the market. I will probab...

Re: Aftermarket Carpet

It seems like it can be hit or miss with most aftermarket carpets.
I ordered one a long time ago for my S14 and it just did not fit that great. The quality was kind of lousy too.

It would be nice to know where to get fresh, good fitting carpet for AE86 these days!

This is the truth! Some very nice examples posted up.
