Suede Headliner
Thinking about doing a suede headliner and pillars in a light gray. Has any one had this done or thought about it?? Got a quote for 750. Possibly dynamatting the roof if there is room to do it.

I have also though about doing that but it is the last thing I will spend money on. I think it's one of those "I'll just blow some $$$ on the headliner" moves. I think it's hot though.

How much under a grand? Also how many feet are in each box of dynamat? I found this stuff:

$14/Yd. I figure you'd only need 5Yds max?

Well i took it to an upholstrey shop to do the final work which was to put on the suede(acutal suede not microfiber) it cost $125 a yard. The guy said that it was probably about 3 1/2 yards of suede. Dynamat is a sound deadining material its mostly used because of my stereo but it definately helps keep the car quieter. It smells better than a brand new car now! I also got all my pillars done and here are some more pics of it and i thought ill throw in a few of my custom stereo set up!
Thanks for the compliments!
