Title: Headlining material
Post by: thai-wronghorse on 12 March 2014, 00:14

The headlining on my wagon has all of sudden become saggier than a pair of grannies titties, I'm guessing it's down to the sudden change in temperature the past week? Anyway it looks sh!t so il need recover it soon so was wondering what OEM look foam backed material people have used and would recommend?

There have been some interesting headlinings around here over the years!
Mr Wherry for a start! :grin:

I used some black faux suede fabric. Not what you are after really but it worked. If you were to go down that route I would use 'fishy glue' on the back of the fabric, wait for it to dry to create a backing then apply it to the headlining. Hope that helps in any way! :grin:

I used coloured thumb tacks to stick mine back up, looks awesome and cost me nothing as I already had the tacks :grin:
