Though the carpeting in your car isn't trampled all over the way the carpeting is in your house, automotive carpeting is subject to intense wear, albeit in a small area. Each time you drive, you rest your foot in the same place for miles and miles enough to wear a hole through the carpeting.

If the carpeting in your car is still good, the nap isn't worn, you can simply and effectively repair small worn areas. Trim around the damage. Cut a small piece of good section of the carpet from an edge that's normally hidden under one of the seats. Carefully trim the patch to the size and shape of the hole.
