Has any one done a black high grade vinyl headliner in an Xb before? Or would that be to dark for the interior.

 

it would actually be "lighter" than the slightly more comon suede headliner. The vinyl would reflect more light around the cabin.

Go with a nicer 'pleather' type material, would give a nice leather appearance to the roof - something a little different.

As long as you don't cover the pillar covers in a dark material also, the cabin will be fine.

 

i wanna do a headliner out of vinyl, maybe i'll post some pics when its done

 

wheres the best place to get different fabrics for your headliner online? im also thinking about redoing mine this winter

 

suede.... psst u want it done let me know I know a guy that does it... did his car

 

Keith, Prices?

If your parnter can do it for less than 300 Flat, he's got a customer in San Jose.

 

u buy the materials

 

$300!!!!
Are you kidding?
I could buy the materials, drive from Dallas to California to get the work done and drive back for the price that what a local shop was trying to charge me to get this done to my box.
they were wanting to charge me $1,800.....no joke.
Can you believe that ____!

 

just to do the headliner? its pretty easy

oh course u need to take it out yourself.

 

Well I have a sunroof and my headliner is like attached to it somehow. I wouldn't want to jack anything up....

 

sunroof attached to it

 

Cheese n Rice! Apparently I need to add a sideline to my business.

My liner's black suede. Spent 'bout $100 on materials and 'bout an hour or two (tops) taking the liner out, recovering and reinstalling it. - and I don't get cheap, I do stuff right.

Good God - for you local guys... if $1800 is the going rate - I'll do it for $900. Leave me your car for 2 hours.

 

so what is the local price?



Why ? I was thinking of painting the pillars something close to the oem color.

 

If u want suede let me know... we can talk u got my number
