Dyeing My Headliner
Im going to be taking of my headliner and I want to dye it black. I was looking at products on Sumit Racing. Anyone else done this with success? It shouldnt be too hard. I just dont know what type paint or dye to use. Any help appreciated.

I am a bit curious myself. I have frost interior but would rather have a black headliner. I have some stains in mine, and it really drives me crazy.

I checked on a local shop here to see about switching my headliner to black (from what I can tell Nissan didn't offer an all black headliner or visors) but the problem is the sun visors and the plastic bits. The headliner would run $120 but I would have to do everything else myself.

My headliner is as clean as the day the car was rolling off the assembly
floor. How does one get the headliner dirty?? It's above your head for petes sake! feet are on the floor and with any luck, you have clean hands so what
can get on the headliner in a Z? a Ford F250 headliner? This I get. The delivery
driver for Portobello Pizza? I can see this happening. NYC Taxi cabs...a no brainer but the Z?
On the issue of black, I do think it would look nice in a Z that has the black interior and leather seats. Question is, would it feel or look smaller inside than it already is/does?
it doesnt change how small it is so why would that matter your not decorating your house.

I'm not claustrophobic but I also wouldn't like feeling as if I am driving
a coffin. Colors play an important role in how our subconscious mind
works, look at prisons, they paint them in chearful colors to limit the
weekly stabbings to single digits.
