Pre Cut bass boat carpet kits
« on: February 19, 2015, 03:37:29 PM »
Hey guys, replacing the carpet in my 86' Ranger 373v, and I have found precut carpet kits for my exact model on ebay...have any of you guys had any experience with these kits? They are close to $150 higher than ordering carpet cut to length. Its awful tempting to spend the extra money to avoid all the hassle of cutting it myself!

Heres the link that I have found on ebay for this kit

I have only put carpet in two boats so I'm no professional by any means.
 We looked at the pre-cut carpets for both boats and we came to same conclusion.......
The pre-cut leaves very little room for error if you make one.
2nd. It was much easier to get a good 20oz carpet localy cheaper and not have to pay outrageous shipping prices.
3rd. We were able to see the color and feel the carpet we were buying before laying out the bucks.

Like I said I'm not a pro in the carpet area and these are just a few things we thought of when looking for ours.
 Good luck with your project and be sure to post some pics while your doing it.  (y)  (y)

If I was going to order pre-cut carpet, I think I'd call the factory and see if they sold pre-cut carpet directly.  I'd trust the factory more than a 3rd party to get it right in this case.
