    Thanks!...Its just indoor/outdoor carpet from menards. The cheap stuff but used it before on a boat and it held up well so figured it should be fine inside a van.

    My summer project (haha) e350 van build

    Feeling under the weather but managed to get the driver side insulated and ready for the panels. Spent the whole day pushing insulation up the pillar ribs and in the cieling ribs. Didnt have anymore spray foam so made do with the roll insulation, just took forever.
