I am looking for the carpet material that wraps around the front seats. My interior is gray. I just need a few inches to patch something. Is there a place that makes mats or carpet for vanagons that has scraps/remnants or does anyone know of a place that has similar gray carpet?

you could Talk to sewfine. They make the kits so they may have pieces.

GoWesty also sells the complete kits that include the seat wraparounds.

sewfine mentiioned that the replacements they make aren't exactly the same as the factory carpet so they might not be exact. I am going to look at a fabric/carpet store.

It would be better to check at an auto upholstery shop. They'll carry carpets that more closely match. Depending where you live, there's a shop on SE Foster near 55th. I've bought supplies from them before. It's right near the George Morlan store around 55th.

Cool. That's on my side of town. I will check it out. Thanks
