You can (DIY),
I use the following product and cut my Own using factory removed originals as a template.
Material source:
Restoration Specialties & Supply, INC.
814-467-9842

Material Part number MAT014-WS
Material nomenclature: Rubber Matting, 1/16 thick black masticated x 48" wide

It is NOT a 100% Match due to the fibers fully encapsulated, but James reccomended using a DA sander and scuffing to expose more fibers. Others have source Large sections from 1970's OLDs in auto recycling yards as starter stock and cut from Real GM materials, but I have not gone that route.

I hope you find this helpful, as I understand it really did not provide you an off the Shelf product. I would Explore "REM" mfr'g and get real world samples.

Jim

My experience is that whatever manufacture you purchase the material from modifications will have to be made to make the material look like original. As Jim has stated "REM" has a good product to start with.

I would pass this to my friend's uncle. He recently retired would start both his Z11 and Ranger project. The bumper, nerf bars, and winch for the truck showed up so we can take in the Z11 and deal with the rust first.
