Looks awesome! Is the 'carpet' the self adhesive stuff? If so where did you get it from?

What a crazy little car , I would be tempted to remove the tints so people dont think its just another Z car mini with an engine in the back.

Might aswell leave the passanger seat out so Harvey can fit in to check the mapping
