awesomeaussie, sorry to derail, but its on topic at least :) please post some pics when you recover the door inserts and a quick write up? Going black with white accents in mine. STORM TROOPER :D

Looks good Black Bear, I like that idea to recover the grilles in a different color

I think I might paint them with SEM paint instead. I'd love to give it a try, but if the paint doesn't look good then I'll go that route. I have so many things I want to do... but not the time to do it :(

When you did your headliner, did you remove the old one first? What material did you use and type of glue? Gonna being doing a interior redo soon myself.

diggin' the headliner, what adhesive did you use? i use 3m aerosol spray glue for alot of vinyl covering of trim but have ran into problems with it seeping through suede in my old car, could've been a lack of patience in waiting for the glue to set though, or excessive use haha. Just wondering if there is a better product for this application.

I used 3M adhesive spray. I remove all the old headliner material first. Then covered the base headliner board with a thin piece of foam and then used a really soft polyester fabric from joanns to cover it all in the black. I ised blue suede on the speaker covers. AS long as you do the headliner small sections at a time you wont have problems with the glue seeping through. You dont need to soak it in glue as a little goes a long way.

Use can also buy the headliner material in rolls with the foam already attached. That's what I do. I also use the 3m headliner spray adhesive. One can also order rolls of headliner material from stock interiors. I've been pleased with their stuff also.

for what it's worth, I found that a red scotch brite pad works great to remove any leftover headliner material on the backerboard if used gently.

Either way, your headliner looks fantastic. Great job!
