You might try your trailer manufacturer; I called Prestige trailers and they sent me a perfectly matched set to fit my 6 bunk trailer for $78 a few years ago. Really took the hassle out of the whole operation. Instead of installing the original lag screws in from the bottom, I countersunk some lag bolts in from the top-- sealed the countersunk bolt heads with silicon sealer, and used lock washer from the bottom then installed the carpet with stainless staples. It has lasted 6 years with no problems-- although I need to redo the carpet since I keep the boat in the lake and the AZ sun has started to trash the carpet. Joys of boat ownership..

Thanks for the info. I'm only looking for the carpet. The wood is in great shape.

I used this carpet:

http://www.boatcarpetcentral.com/premium-boat-carpet

Went with the 6 x 16 roll, had 3" x 12" x 10' to cover, so I needed more than 2' ft wide. I did not cover bottom of bunk on the vertical bunks, and only about half the bottom on the forward flat 2" x 6 " x 6'.

Invest in one of these if you don't have one already.

I used indoor outdoor carpet from Home Depot. I had them cut the carpet to the right width to wrap around the wood I was using, saved a lot of time and did a neat job keeping all strips straight and even.
