I redid my headliner myself!

With the help of the hubby of course...

Anyway.. I went from the tan (beechwood) color to an 82 berlinetta burgundy color. I love it

My headliner was already coming uncovered so we took it down.. The material peeled off..

Used a scrub brush to brush off the remaining foam.

We bought cloth at Ben Franklin's crafts.. Matched it to the carpet panels in the rear.. we used paper and really thin cardboard to reenforce it so it would be stronger. We covered it with the fabric and we got this:

the back looked like this:

anyone who wants to do their own can contact me if they want. i'd be willing to help

The spray glue is on the hood of a basically junk car.

my husband is parting it out. the hood has the corner rusting off of it..

Nice job. Not that bad to do yourself once you get going.
