My Interior is the tan/taupe. How low could u go on it? I'm sick of the crappy carpet shit I have covering mine. When I bought it I thought it was molded to be the shape. But it's not... Just wavy ugly carpet.

I saw some vinyl the other day at Hobby Lobby but the only color I saw was black. Best bet for the best material and biggest selection of colors and material is to order from an upholstery shop near you.

QFT, stay away from the big box stores, find a local mom and pop shop, not only will you be helping the local economy, you'll probably have a better experience and in the future they will probably be more willing to hook you up
