Interior fabric

Post by MoparNeonMan » Fri Dec 29, 2006 11:13 pm

Ive got an 03 SXT in the Graphite Gray Metallic paint....stock slate interior......Im gonna redo some interior pieces...the headliner and door inserts. I was thinking of using either a red crushed velvet

Thanks man i used automotive paint and I primered the door and bondoed it then sprayed paint and clear on it then the other half i wrapped (which is easy to do iam suprised)

Ohh the pocket is gone it was going to be too much of a bitch to wrap and i was like screw that.

man thats nice..........you need to put a how-to up on here.

I think uma try the same thing.....just all black and no c/f

The finish is awesome, did you follow the same primer, bondo, paint, and clear with the other interior pieces?

yeah i use the sandable primer thats my secret i add tons of it so i can sand it down smooth.

Its kind of hard to do a how to cause its all about how you want it wraped but i can post materials and where i got them and how to apply the fabric its all up to you how you want it to bend and curve.

yeah post materials man.....I love how you have that setup, I'm thinking the same thing. Just black paint and suede material.......I'm doing a shiny black and flat black.......perfect for the suede and shiny part.

Sandable primer hhhmmm? gotta look into that

Hey Krack, I was in the middle of working on my car and I asked my lady friend to order the material for me and this is what she ordered: http://www.distinctivefabric.com/fabric ... t=UPHOLST2
