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 biggrin.gif

p.s apologies if people have milked this question already! Can't seem to find anything on it though

Yeah but they don't come in black IIRC. If they do please LMK

I've got several sets including one set of the vert ones and I'm willing to donate to make this happen. Unfortunately my DIY skills do not include sunvisors and grey on an otherwise all black interior looks like...
