Just like the title says. I have a saddle interior with some Black Alcantara on the door panel section that were originally fabric covered. I'm toying with the idea of a Black headliner. If anyone has done this and has pics I'd love to see them.

 

There is someone on this forum w a tan interior w black accents/inserts. I cant remember who. Pics were posted and it looked really cool. So its totally do-able. And for what its worth, I've always been a 1 color interior person. I had all tan years ago and now have all black. So I'd go for it!

I have a tan interior with black carpet and black headliner. Just looked through my pics and don't have any that catch the black headliner in them unfortunately. In my opinion it looks great. My daily driver is a BMW with black carpet and tan interior that I love so I copied it in the Trans Am as well lol

 

I've seen a few BMW pics with Tan and black. Looks amazing. My concern is if it will be to much Black. My Sail panels are Black so it would definitely be a more finished look. Here's a few pics. The lighter one is the Beachwood that's currently installed. The other two are AI renders of what I'm thinking of doing.

 

I think the black headliner flows well into the black door panels with the black sail panels in your car. I really dig it actually

 

So I went with the Black. Had my ABS headliner covered in the modern material that they're using on headliners today and had the visors done in Alcantara. I think I'm finally done with the interior. It only took me 26 years.

 

That looks amazing!!!

 

That steering wheel especially is impressive the way it turned out.

 

I like the camel/black contrast.

 

Thank you. I'm pretty happy with how it all came out.

 

Looks good. Having a consistent color "flowing" up and over the top is the point of the sail panels and headliner matching, and you can see why right there. Black was a good choice. And it looks good with the black T-Top trim and A-pillars too.

I've also liked the headliners in all of my newer cars much better than the headliner in my Firebird. The newer materials hold up much better too. There are just so many modern headliner fabrics to choose from that it's difficult to find the "right" one.

How did you do the door panel inserts? Did you peel up the edges around the Pallex cloth, then peel off the cloth, glue down new material, then reglue the edges? I'm not even sure it's possible to do it that way without destroying the vinyl, but if it is, then it seems like the best way to do it. Otherwise, what did you do? I think someone a while back cut and wrapped thin panels that were shaped like the inserts, then applied them over the top of the existing material. Or maybe that was you.

 

Late to the party, yes, it looks great! The black on door panels is a "masterful " touch. I may do that too lol. I have the same seats n feel inspired.

 

The door panels are Alcantara with grey piping on a 1/8 inch piece of plywood that was fastened to the door using a heavy thread pulled through a couple of drilled holes and tightened as well as large fir tree fasteners
