i'm starting to reupholster the interior pieces. i dont have any prior experience in doing this, so it makes for the fun when i mess up lol. i pulled the pillars, and the rear panels above the rear seats, and the hatch panels as well.

i am using a black solid alova to wrap, and using Loctite adhesive heavy duty spray. the fabric is almost like the oem type, just softer.

this fabric is super cheap right now, 2 bux a yard at JoAnns fabric store, they are having an after christmas sale, 60% off :D so whats a couple dollars anywho

well here are some pix of my progress, not much right now...so let me continue doing so






stock comparison



i plan to do the headliner in a few days...will keep ya posted if anyone is interested

 

Drink a few beers before you start the headliner!

 

Good work. I have been thinkin about trying something like this. Let us know how difficult the headliner is.

 

looks good, waiting to see the end results!

 

*update

Very nice.. post some more pics when you get finished..

Material looks pretty nice to.. any ideas on switched out the glass roof covers?

just finished two of the three hatch pieces

i'll take some pix soon..the sun is goin down..guess i'll try my luck again 2morro

 

woah, very cool :D

 

Are you going to do any red to match your dash cover thing? Or all black?

Watching.

 

nice job. Looks great!

 

Looks good! Are you going to do the doors and rear speaker panels also? (Where the fabric is.) I have everything to do the doors and panels except the adhesive spray. I don't know which one to get. One last ?: where did you buy your adhesive at?

 

no kidding! I did mine in suede and will never do that again!

 

thanks everybody Hyghgynx, i bought the adhesive from JoAnns fabric store. I will be doing the door panels eventually, I wanna tackle the more hard to get to panels first.

captain, i plan to do the headliner in a rich red/burgundy, same material. gonna try my hand at the hatch, that big piece where the handles are. that looks so complicated, lol.

sciondrgn, when i take off the headliner i will look for a way to customize that with a diff fabric. if there is a way, but i think the fabric would have to be extremely thin.

this project will continue tomorrow morning

 

so how much have you spent so far? If you dont mind me asking?

 

are u going to do sunvisors...the more i look at this the more i want to do..just i dont wanna do black i was thinking a dark gray...where did u get the material from

 

I really like it

 

He said it in the first post.

looks great
