One question though - although I understand you built up the foam around the brackets and other things sticking out, did you also leave in the big seatback attachment hub on top of the center hump? If so, I'm surprised it doesn't show more through the carpet. I was planning on taking mine out, but maybe I don't have to.
Lots of great ideas have been proposed here.

Dave,
re the seat hinge: I didn't remove it. I cut a series of "collars out of the foam, in graduated diameters, like a wedding cake (I don't remember if it was 2 or three layers). I then applied the layer of foam over the center hump and hinge. There was still a slight (1/8 " ?) high spot showing, so I took some 60 grit sandpaper on a sanding block and shaved the high spot down. If you look closely at the pictures
you can see the spot -- it's a white oval right over the hinge .
Noel -- That spatula lives in my tool box. It's an accessory from an old Cuisinart food processor. It's not like a typical soft rubber spatula. It's made of hard plasitc, and the edges are very sharp. It's one of my favorite tools.
kmhemi -- I've got some kick panel pics that I'll post the next time I get back to Denver next week. Essentially, I didn't want to deal with the sill and heat ducts in that area, so I made some more panels out of the corregated plastic that create a flat surface in the kick panel area.
