Default Suede Headliner Install Complete

took approx. 3 hours. Removed OEM material, sprayed 3m 90 adhesive spray, and flattened it out. Let me know what you guys think

Looks great... are you going to dye the factory plastic to match?

We did carbon suede in our shop car and died all the trim black... 100% better!

no side curtain airbags, and it wasnt difficult...just tedious in certain areas. at some points it was hard getting the fabric to form to the headliner.

Excellent install! As other's have said, go ahead and dye the plastic pieces. Do you anticipate the visors to be difficult to cover (i.e., will you have to sew them on versus using the 3M adhesive spray?)

My shop found it very, very difficult to wrap the visors in suede. We ended up spraying them black along with the trim pieces to match the black suede. Sorry for the bad pic.

That looks really good. I was just wondering how much did it cost?

Also could Roncfpz, Whammie and you post more pictures?
