Rubber floor

Really want to keep a stock looking rubber floor but my trans tunnel has changed due to a trans swap. Any suggestions on a moldable rubber mat with a similar look to the factory floor?

Re: Rubber floor

So, you removed the old floor that had the hump and now you have a flat floor all the way across.

Re: Rubber floor

I just recently roughed in the electrical at a new health club. They used rolled rubber flooring throughout the building. I really liked how it looked. I don't know how it would lay down across a floor hump, but it would look good on the flat areas.

I brought a chunk home for myself, I'm thinking it may be good on my firewall for sound dampening.

Re: Rubber floor

Bigger transmission required some floor modification. Here is a picture.

Re: Rubber floor

Since my initial reply, I've been watching videos, investigating things a little bit.

What about molding your own mats?

This company has alot of products that may be able to get it done.

Kind of pricey, but would be unique and cool.

Re: Rubber floor

I've used site vendor Capt Kaos twice now, for a Squarebody and for a GMT800 model.

He might either have something, or be able to make something for your model year.
