I'm in the PROCESS of doing mine as we speak...I bought 3 yards of yellow suede which is more than enough material...I bought the cheaper stuff which seems to be pretty stretchy so I hope it's easier to work with...I'm not removing the old headliner material, I'm choosing to go right over it...I have everything removed and just waiting to cover it...I helped Scott (phoenixtc) do his tC the other day...I must say that the tC was a major pain in the ****...A little nervous about doing my own but I will update this thread when I am finally done...By the way, removing the headliner is a piece of cake, I hope everything else is the same...

 

Well, I started with the back liftgate piece so I could practice a little bit...Here's a few pics of the headliner out, the fabric im using, and the finished liftgate piece...

 

Yellosub great looking ride. You have carbon fiber listed as your header... I take it the yellow suade didn't work out so good?

 

Thanks for the props! I decided I would do the carbon fiber instead...Looks great but is sagging now...Will be taking it to a professional shop to have it re-done...Quoted me $150 to do it right...

 

I might rewrap the visors after I find a good way to keep from having ugly seams on them.

Here's a shot of the texture.



And the whole view..... I still havent finished wiping it all down either.... my hands are killing me.

 

Had my headliner re-done in yellow carbon fiber vinyl at a professional interior shop! Here is a few pics...







While they were at it, I had them do my interior in yellow and black carbon fiber vinyl:

 

damn, burst my bubble. But a professional job is always better....lol.

 

No man, yours looks good...Hope the glue holds for you...I'm with you on the visor thing! Still not sure what to do with mine yet...

 

what kind of spray gun you guys talking about

 

i originally used 3M "80" but it sagged within a month...DO NOT waste your time with this glue...If you do it yourself, either go with the 3M "90" or use contact cement...If you use the 3M "90" make sure to use alot of it and let it tack up before putting the fabric down, that it very important...Good luck, hope it works for you...

 

im using contact cement WHAT KIND OF SPRAY GUN DO I USE?

 

I'm not certain but I don't think you use a spray gun with contact cement...Wish I could help out more...I think that gets brushed on?

 

you use a spray gun with contact cement its the preffered method, infact thats what they said to use in the first post

 

Ok, sorry then...I didnt use contact cement so I dont know...

 

didn't you pay someone to do it the second time around?

 

I used 3m super 90, and after about 2 months, I am seeing a tiny amount of sag. I will keep you all updated.

 

I want to recover mine in black suede, not sure if its something I want to tackle though

 

Yes I did...Thats why I said good luck! I used the 3M stuff and it started sagging within a month...We used 3M "80" and with the hot weather in AZ it didnt hold up well...Now its great that I took it to a shop, no sag...

 

Do you know what adhesive the shop used? I'm gonna be doing this in the next month.

 

my bet would be contact cement
