What did that set you back to have that done since you took them all the parts to get covered? I would like to get this for my car and there has to be a ton of places here in South FL for this.

after I got my headliner done in black alcantara, i had all my grey pieces dyed black to match (rear view mirror, visors, sun roof pieces, handles, etc etc )

looks a lot better that way.
