If any of you like the fur headliner idea post now please, most people i talk to outside of TGO love it. Do any of you?


this is what it looks like inside the car...


this is what the real colors are....





Shane

hell no , fur dont belong on cars.

It's personally not my thing.
Mines done out of speaker box carpeting.

DIRTY!!!

so much for the muscle car look....

that looks soo ugly...

Nope sorry =/

nope

well i like the feed back

Nope, don't like it. :nono:

Not unless your car's gonna be in Boogie nights 2

i think it's cool that you want to do something different but unless your car looks like this i wouldn't. that's just me though, i like to see new things but i definately wouldn't want to ride in it.

I'd be one of the 19 so far to say NO, its horrible.

That looks pretty slick. Where do you get the carpeting? And how much is it? How did you apply it?

In two words big pimpin.lol

i got it from a local place here called mills fleet farm, it was $1.88 a foot, i used 3M spray adhesive to glue it on. i also did all my plastic panels, door panels and stuff to match. pics on my web page (link in sig).

fur = foul, vile, terrible.

Chalk up another negative. Unless your going with a lowrider style or pimp of the year award, I'd avoid that idea lol. I don't think Snoop drives a 3rd gen.

Fur is Murder!! I don't like it, but it looks good on some street rods.

it looks like you lined it with the fur of several dead squirrels

man peeps, you all are hatin.

nah, j/k, i like the feedback really, because while i'm at school now and showing everyone, all of them like it. I dont know why they all like it, but all they say is, "yeah its cool; "yeah its strait." So keep posting you negative comments cause i know that people really do like it, you guys just dont..... no offense of coarse.



Shane

if i was there, i might comment, but nothing too harsh...


well, perhaps the squirrel comment.. LMAO...


i wouldnt call it ugly, or hate on it too much, but its def not my style, and doesnt fit the car IMO.

then again, you're talking to a guy who doesnt like having a roof at all on his cars... so what do i know?

hey if you like it great it's your car and that's what matters, it's just not most peoples taste from the general concensous.

I think people say its cool or alright for the sake of saying it...they may not want to offend you face to face. I know the workmanship of it is good and the time you spent on it is commendable...so in that sense its cool, but I don't have to see it in person to tell you that it looks tacky and no good.

maybe its jsut the picture, and you have to see it in real life to get the true effect. but from that pic, i say no, but wtf am i talking? the roof trim in my car is bare metal! i dont have any liners but that box carpet idea has got me thinking.. if i get that stuff in black and trimmed my car, it would be fawking awesome. !! tell me how ya did it dave84bird

Dave84Bird-
i like that speaker box carpeting alot. i have been wantin to do somethin like that.. but how much trouble would you say it is? i just dont want to get into anything too involved ( no time) rate the whole project.. (headliner, door panels, etc.) on a scale of 1-10 10 being a new motor, 1 being a bumper sticker. thanks

thats a headliner repair article i made myself, supposed to be posted in the tech articles section soon.




Shane

i have one question, do u have the deminsions by chance? cuz when i bought the car their was no headliner, just the bare metal painted the original color, i would like to rap it in cloth. but i have no fiberglass to lay my carpet over

Once you have the board you just cut the fabric to shape leaving a few inches extra to overlap. If you don't have the board get one from a yard or I believe Classic Industries sells a brand new ABS plastic one uncovered for a little over $100. If not buy an covered one from Hawks for $140.

if you cut the material to shape and just leave extra to overlap, wont the inside corners be all bunchy? how do you avoid that? just pull it tight? the problem i have with mine is the cloth is in fine condition, but when its cold it droops. when its warm out, it looks and feels tight, no extra. but in the cold it dosent fit well. so i want to recover it, but dont want it to look ghetto

read the fu*king article

tell/shows everything


Shane

LMFAO
Hey shane I guess your making another point

How does that line go!!!!
"son you want the truth ..........you can't handle the truth"

LMFAO again

I think it's big pimpin'!

That being said - I wouldn't be caught dead in and/or around your car with that fuzzy headliner.

now all you need is pink fuzzy ***** hanging around the trim

nah guys i'm gonna theme the car around the fur colors, light grey and dark grey/black. Gonna have two tone carpet, with thsoe two colors. Then i'm gonna get silver guages plates. All kinds of cool sutff, turst me guys you'll love the interior theme once i'm done.

I got a qupte on my custom two tone caret(longer threads than normal) and it was $325 for the whole car. Not too shabby if you ask me.





Your welcome,

Shane


P.S. Flirtin1 i have no idea what your problem with me it but deal with it!

***MOD EIDT*** Consider this a warning................

yeah i did.. but im thinkin its gonna be a little different as far as showing wrinkles and poor fit with thin carpet than with snoop dog fur. no offense intended, it looks different.. but its not gonna show the fit as well as a fabric like the speaker box fabric will.. thats why i asked. dont take it personally man, i respect your taste.

That isn't snoop dogg fur...Snoop would use real chinchila fur =) As for using the speaker box carpeting, perhaps you can get some thin cotton batting to sandwich in between to allow some room for error.

If you don't know by now you never will even though you have had about 100 people tell you what the problem is, and go out of their way to help you with it so I guess I will waste space also

Edit: I am glad you stay true to form you have now covered everything I told you to put in your sig:

"don't bother answering any of my questions because I really don't want to hear your opinion I just want to talk about my fur, girlfriend and prove that I just don’t want any help"

Well unless you have a Cane, a Felt Hat, Fur Robe and some Ho's then its truly tacky.

i dont got a cane, buit if i need one i'll get one. i'm wearing a felt top hat to prom, i got a furry rob, but not fur, and i got 2 white hos, a gf and 1 black ho. That enough? I'm no pimp thouhg, girls are just all over me, so their my hos.




Shane

man poll shows only 6 of us like it......




Shane

Isn't that odd? I wonder what the deal is?

Put down your copy of Austin Powers.......

man i thouhg FLYNLOW92rs would atleast make a open comment as soon as he saw this but..... he didn't. Why d00d. I though we were dawgs man? Its cool though.....




Shane

That belongs in a 1974 Couple DeVille with gold trim and an airbrushed image of Tupac Shakur on the hood.

"d00d", I would imagine your friend's reaction is similar to the response the handicapped kid recieved when he asked if "riding the short bus is cool?". Of course it's not cool, but how can you bring yourself to tell the retarded kid that?

I'd imagine he's right. I think a lot of people are just being nice.

I can see that this thread is crashing................................

Closed before it gets any more out of hand.
