I finished the headliner a few months ago but did the rear strut cover today since it's raining and Im bored. I was going to paint it flat black since it reflects sunlight on the rear windshield, but decided to make it match the headliner instead. I like the outcome though.

 

thats pretty sick bro

how do you think it will hold up against the sun beating down on it all the time?

 

that does look great..

 

Time will tell. But I can always do it again. It took less than 30 minutes and I have plenty more fabric leftover.

 

Looks good. Was that microfiber?

 

I believe it is. Its not alcantara for sure

 

how hard was the headliner i have been thinking about doing that are you gonna get the plastics dyed black to match or just leave them grey

 

It was my first time ever doing anything like it so it wasn't the easiest thing Ive done. It's hard to make sure you dont get wrinkles. What I did is start at the front and work my way back spraying glue in sections. It would have helped to have another set of hands as well.

 

looks awesome where did you get the fabric?

 

It works great if your not in a hot climate...be afraid if you live in Arizona, took me all weekend, let it cure up and then on monday
the sun beatdown on the car and I had a big overhead curtain.

Well I live in FL and havent had any problems yet. I bought some really strong spray adhesive and my headliner has survived July and August in FL so I think it can handle anything.

 

I don't know how its possible not to get wrinkles. They'res so many curves in it! Some people suggest starting in the middle and others suggest starting from the front... I worked my way from back to front and have a few wrinkles.. but it doesnt bother me much.

 

nice job! I wish i had a black suede headliner. yeah, i heard you start from the middle first. Good job doing the front first though.

 

Awsome job!!! I need to do this too. My headliner is dirty as a mother with carbon.

 

very nice work. is that how the pro shops do it? they just cut material and glue it to the car?

 

I bet thats a "one of strut cover"...very original, good work.

 

Thats why I did it b/c I hadnt seen it done before and I usually try to do stuff different than the norm. I appreciate all the compliments

 

how much did it cost overall to do your headliner?

 

I spent no more than $40 for sure

 

some nice work there!
