Expert Reply:

Bunk Carpet like the part # FCR8008 you mention is typically stapled or glued into place. If you decide on using staples, make sure you shoot the staples into the underside of the bunk board so that the boat will not be scratched. A combination of outdoor carpet adhesive and stainless staples would be your best bet.

The carpet is not self-sticking.
