Hi,
I'm currently making a pair of 6 x 9 ported boxes out of 20mm MDF as well as a parcel shelf for my Corsa B and was wondering if anyone could recommend any carpet and adhesives they've used please? I have looked on a few different car audio sites but the details on such products are very limited. I'm after something like an anthracite/graphite coloured acoustic carpet with a decent backing and a strong adhesive. If anyone has any tips and info or a shop they could recommend please let me know. Any help would be much appreciated! Cheers 
Matt

my mother used to have a sewing shop, try somewhere like that, and possibly a evo stick for sticking it down

Cheers for the replies  I'm sure I've heard of the evo stick stuff before. Is it something you brush on do you know mate? I have looked at the spray glues but they seem to have bad reviews in that they don't last very long before the carpet starts to peel. Thanks for the link to passion auto Edd, had a good look at their stuff. Have you used the carpet from there before at all? Thanks

Yeah i used there carpet and spray glue. The carpet it alot cheaper than other places and was fine to work with, i used it to carpet a whole back shelf i made. There spray glue was ok but after a while it did start to peel, it was also near impossible to get off clothes or anything else you got it on
