if you use good glue, it will never lift. The ones used on mine are really strong.

mike410 03-22-2010 01:49 PM

yeah I just used the fabric on the rears as a guide to cut the new material. then i glued it on, trimmed where necessary, then tucked the rest into the little pocket like grove thats there

kools thanks guys probably grow some balls and do it... so when i apply the rears guessing mask panel and spray glue on panel? or panel and fabric?

So whats the consensus on the best adhesive to use? Spray on, rubber cement?

alvarospatchez 04-11-2010 02:01 PM

u got the right brand but id highly suggest getting the 144 strength or watever number it is. Ive heard a lot of people said that the 77 lifted after awhile. Just my 2 cents

Is it better to use a thick or thin fabric? Also, what kind of meterial is suggested.

Ciggy 04-13-2010 11:15 AM

I'm afraid to do this :(

How difficult is it to pull out the headliner and get it back in?

Do all the pillars have to come off? If so how much would it be to get the pillars all powder coated black? Just a ball park number

I want to do like black seude headliner black pillars and red oh sh!t handles. Then I was the door panels some type of red/black pattern..

I'm so afraid to do this work. Can someone make a step by step tutorial from removing the pillars to remove the headliner to cutting the fabric to applying the fabric and then putting the headliner back in and what works best. I just dont want to F anything up!

Ive heard people having problems with this, especially if the fabric is a bit thicker or heavier. I used 3m super 93 on mine, and my fabric is fleece which is a bit heavy. I dont have any sagging or anything even in the harsh summers over here.

I used contact cement and applied it with a paint brush.

this

I have had mine for about a year now and its still holding up. My car is usually outside in the Florida sun and my interior is all black. Lasted much longer than the month or so the Super77 worked for the first time around

also wondering this

Thin enough fabric to stretch is the best, but also not too thin because the glue would start to show through. So there's a limit.
