custom headliner!

has any body made their own head liner. I thought it would be cool if it was fiberglass but then I relized how would you put it in the car. Has any body tired this though. or something along the same lines?

I did mine in fiberglass but ended up throwing it out since i couldnt get it in betweent the roof and the roll cage. I bet if you only laid one layer of fiber and did a really good job with the resin you might be able to get it to flex enough to slide in from the back hatch. although with mine there wasnt a chance in hell it was WAY to stiff

Where did you get the fiberglass to make it from? Ive been looking around but im not really sure what i need and how much of it. I worked with fiberglass many times but it was in my friends fathers shop awhile ago so im not really sure on what i must buy?


Thanks,

Drop by Napa or another parts shop and grab yourself some resin, hardener, and mat. There should be starter kits from Bondo or other companies that can get you off to a good start.
