Question Rollbar install complete...Interior reinstall ???'s

My rollbar is in and I am reinstalling my interior tonight. Anyone have any tips or ideas on cutting the carpet, for a seamless look, around the downtubs?

well i did mine and it looks pretty good. and nothings perfect but you can get close. just use a real sharp utility knife. when you cut it make sure you don't take away that much carpet cause it you get it off centered it'll be ugly. just put the carpet as close to hoew it's going to lay and lean it up against the roll bar and cut a line towards the back part of the bar that piece will lay down behind the bar. then with the front part where you just made the cut take it and cut a half circle that will wrap around the bar. just make little cut till you get it to fit the way you want it to. just do that for each one and your good to go. better to make two or three cuts to get it to fit right than to make one big cut and looks like dog crap.
