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

Ray

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

anyone else tried flat black Vinyl and fabric spray paint? I did and it looks AMAZING!, it looks like swede, but feels like sand paper! laugh.gif well not really but feels rough, im going to buy a spare set and try to stitch the real deal, and do swede door inserts and swede roof liner and sunroof cover thing lol, I have to take that off anyway to tighten the sunroof screws, apparently the vibration form the subs got it loose rolleyes.gif
