Due to an isurance glitch I can't drive my car right now so I took the time to recover the headliner with the help of my friend. Took us a few hours to get it all done but we were just figuring it out as we went along. Don't have any before pictures but I'm sure you guys know what a ripped and sagging headliner looks like. I used fleece to recover it, which worked out fairly well since it can stretch a bit around the curves but its thicker and stronger than regular headliner material. Now without further adieu...

 

It looks to be covered pretty well. Can you get a close-up of the material and a better interior shot? It looks a bit purplish; is that from the camera or is it actually this color?

 

Its actually black but I took those at night and I guess the flash makes it look purple-ish. I'll get more pictures when I go back out cause I still need to get one of my sun visors on, then I should be all set.

 

what kind of adhesive did you use? I tried the spray can stuff from kragen, i forget what its called, but as soon as mine got warm it fell right off...

thanks

 

I can't remember the name of the stuff, just grabbed a spray can of headliner adhesive from pep boys of all places. Did you spray the cloth and the headliner board? I can check the name if you like but its only been a few days so I can't say for sure it lasts a long time.

 

I've used 3M trim adhesive on mine. It's good if you can get the headliner on in the perfect place on the first try... and you don't get any on your hands!

 

I used 3M trim adhesive, it shows a guy on the can covering the inside of a van LOL. Nice job and i love gunmetal Formula's.
Here's my headliner, the hardest part is the inside corners where the t-tops go.

 

Has anyone tried recovering their t-top headliner with vinyl or leather? If so, how did it do in the inside corners? I saw on a show once that vinyl can be heated with a hair dryer allowing it to form to curves and such. Is this a good idea?

 

How did you covor your interior plastic pieces with that fabric? what kind of fabric is it? also it looks like you recovered your door panels as well, your interior looks great.

 

i second that , what type of material did you use. i am looking to go black with blue or silver highlights, not sure yet, however, i need to get a few ideas on what works , yours apparently worked well, looks good, like the headliner. Any info you could pass on is appreciated!

 

It's speaker box carpet, i think iended up goingthrough 30 feet of it. Lots more pix on my web page. It was very time cosuming..but looks great i have had it like that for 2 years now.
