Suede Headliner

Anyone got it in black? Post picturrrrrrrrrrrrrrres!

I have it in white.  Did it myself and I think it came out pretty well for someone with no knowledge on car interior/upholstery.  A couple mess ups but nothing major really.  

I'll try and get pics.  Black is friggin hot though.

Yes, but no pics as of yet. I take some this weekend though.:shrug:

Nice guys...post some pictures FTW!

bump

I'll try to grab some pictures of mine later on today. It's not hard to do by any means, just take your time and get it right.

Sorry, forgot to post it.

If you look closely pillars are done too. Not sure why I only took one pic, it's been uploaded for about a week.

looks real good.

I know it's not black but its suede!! :)
 
Here is my headliner and all pillars done in my JZS147 in Graphite. I know, I know I need to get a suede brush and have it all going in the same direction.  This was taken about 20 minutes after I got everything put back together.

I guess you can say I like suede! hehe

Those pics are tight i can't wait to get my car done.

What kind of adhesive did you use, projectwidow?

Finally grabbed some better pics! Enjoy:

how hard was it to do those visors? suede is readily available in any color you want right?

^^ would also like to know what adhesive

[QUOTE=DD9512F;150234]^^ would also like to know what adhesive[/QUOTE]

probably that 3M spray adhesive...

3M Super Trim Adhesive, (part number 08091)
Permatex Bodyshop Heavy Duty Headliner & Carpet Adhesive, (part number 27828)
DAP Weldwood Contact Adhesive (part number 00273)

Just to name a few..try to steer clear of spray adhesives.

Where is everyone sourcing the suede.  I'm really interested in doing this but need some leads on the best place to pick up some suede.

+1 on WTB fabric.

looks nice as hell, another +1 on the fabric source

I picked mine up at Joann's Fabrics.

You picked up real suede at JoAnne Fabrics or ultra/microfiber/good quality suede "like" fabric at JoAnnes.

I know where to get  suede Like stuff.  I'm looking for real stuff,  or is everyone doing suede like.

The real stuff is too impractical. The faux stuff is washable and easier to work with.

looks really good, how hard is it to DIY ? is it just buying the material, taking off the headliner and laying it?  LMK

Faux suede. As stated above, real suede is kind of impractical, but I have seen nice installs with it. Real suede stretches much better than the faux stuff, but it costs a lot more.

@ffgarage: Basically. I stripped old fabric off my headliner, applied adhesive as directed on can, applied fabric, let cure for a day or so, then installed.
