I was interested in doing my headliner in black suede about a year ago. I went to a headliner shop and they quoted me around $150 for the job. I also know of someone on here paying over $500 for the job. Any good headliner shop should be able to get any type of material that you want.

Will do! But I was told that a "overlay" will not stick due to the texture. Do they make brushed aluminum in sticker? Either that or just paint it. I'm going to paint the center dash silver anyway. Any recommendations?

I think the car looks sweet, but the lights / sunglass holder was the only thing I thought was out of place. If you can't make it brushed aluminum, I would say you should def. just paint it black. It would bleng in with the suede then and not be such a standout.

I have mine painted black b/c I had my sat radio molded into the sunglass holder. It looks pretty good in black (though I don't have a super-cool suede headliner like you do )

That looks sweet!!! I'm jealous. Some of the best mods are ones that are not practical at all. They are usually some of the most unique ones. Great job!
