new suede roof lining

[hsmith]

Hi, just though i would show you my roof lining, i did it a while back with a mate who had it in his car but never took a picture up till now, it's not something i have seen much of so i hope you like it.

As of when i clean the inside ill try to get a decent fish eye lens picture of it.

Re: nu suede roof lining

looks too dark in there now for my liking

 

[hsmith]

yeah it is pretty dark in there, disco car.

I like it. Would look good, but extreme, if it matched the turquoise seats. Was it easy to do?

 

[hsmith]

thanks, seats match the outside and doorcards so its not on the agenda to change them . it wasnt as difficult as i thought, just tricky getting it flat.

Needs one of these tbh:

Playerrrrrrrr!

 

[BIFCAIDS]

ive wanted to do mine for moons just always been told it will snap the headlining

 

[JoeyD]

Do all the plastics on the roof in black too, e.g grab handles, sunroof surround. Would look far better! IMO, of course!

 

[Curley]

Put the seats all the way forward and smash that gash.

Would look better without a sunroof

Dark headlinings rock

 

[hsmith]

yeah would look way better without the sunroof, in my friends fiesta its way darker without the sunroof, its the only reason all the other parts are the same colour as before because it's too difficult to wrap the stuff around tidy.

Very swish.

Loads better, my dad's focus ST has a black roof lining and it looks so much nicer in there for it

i can see why people have told you that, i bent mine so much getting it out so i sort of had to finish the job lol, its a nice 'mod' though. no one seems to notice but me but who looks at the roof lol.

Thanks for the positive comments

Bit "Huggy Bear" for me...

Looks sweet, better if it matched though obviously.
My Clios had the usual sunroof leak so iv taken the headlining off to do a proper job of it. Taking it off is a little tough cause of the compound used to adhese it to the roof, which is obviously needed so that that the lining stays flush.
What adhesive did you use to stick the lining back? and what one did you use to stick the suede to the fibreglass mould?

cheers

well done! i like the look, its pretty big in the v dub world i think.
ive wanted to do it in the past but im just to lazy to try and get the lining out lol
