Not sure why you want to make your own liner but the one I got from Wolfsburg West was a perfect fit and matched the original in every detail (except for the 'tear' that was in the original).

I did overlay carpet just to 'cushion' items stored there.
Your car is looking good and I liked the 'charging port' that you installed.

Howdy, You can do it ,just use cardboard for a template and tweek it till it suits you and your car. And there you have it. Take pics and show us your method.
P.S. I think your car is kind.

Will do...and thanks for your comments...another reason to build my own, the shipping from Wolfsburg West is $32.22!!!! That's insane! From California to Kentucky, $32.22.... I don't think so...

Shipping for mine was $21 and I'm in Oregon. It's shipped in a big box and that's how UPS figures the cost. I checked online and for a box that big, the shipping was correct. I do agree that shipping costs are getting pretty steep. Even higher for those sellers that also charge a boxing fee and a handling fee.

Shipping costs are always a problem. That's another reason I like Wolfsburg West. They have a 'wish list' page. I just keep adding items that I would like to have and, when the total cost is enough to justify the shipping, I place the order. At least, that's how I did it when I was doing Elwood. Hopefully, I won't be needing too much more anytime soon.
