Hi folks, i have a couple of quick questions regarding upholstering.
I'm planning on re-upholstering my headliner with synthetic leather (which is the easy bit) and was wondering has any one else re-upholstered their sun visors? and how would i go abouts doing this? I was thinking maybe I should Contact Cement the material to the sun visors? i don't want the headliner to be black and sun visors to be grey lol any help regarding the matter would be greatly appreciated  Ray p.s apologies if people have milked this question already! Can't seem to find anything on it though --------------------  "whoever said progress was a slow process... was probably talking about me" |

im going to have to make slip covers like schmooot said. tried gluing on some old ones but they came out looking tacky. also called dealers and they dont have black ones unfortunately. in 2 minds about what colour i should do them now tho. black headliner and visors or red headliner and visors. my upholstery is going to be red as soon as vincent_doggy completed them.
DEATH i love your car man. how much does the gt4 hood actually stick out at the front and does it look out of place? (its hard to tell because of shadowing) -------------------- "whoever said progress was a slow process... was probably talking about me" |
