My first carpeting job... go easy

So after about a month of having the bare box in the trunk I decided it was time for me to get my shit together and clean up my install.

This includes but is not limited to the box carpeting. I know it's fugly on the sides, the carpet was not long enough so I had to piece it but it's OK for me.

Thanks for the positive remarks guys I appreciate it.

I didn't have enough for the bottom, but it's neatly tucked under about 1" all around and securely stapled/glued, so ah well //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Also, the port I had tried to spray paint green but I neglected to seal the MDF, so the primer/paint didn't adhere too well (hence the patchiness towards the front of the port)... anybody have an idea of how to possibly cover this 1.5" of eyesore up? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/tongue.gif.6130eb82179565f6db8d26d6001dcd24.gif
