    Saggy headliner be gone , hello creased far from perfect headliner lol

    in Interior

    Posted

    So my headliner was starting to resemble the interior roof of a french boudoir or something from low budget greek era movie :-D

     

    So me being me loving a bit of a cheap work around and my wife banning me from spending more money decided to go at it as cheap as possible 

     

    Im sure it was less than £10 work of top quality pleather or leatherette (same cheapo rubbish whatever you call it lol) and a couple tins of spray adhesive ive started to tackle the roof 

     

    I know it was looking a bit grubby but once it was out the car it was 21 years worth of grime :shock: and really wanting changed 

     

    Its not back in yet but heres where im at so far ......... bear in mind ive never attempted anything like this before so there are marks and creases as i didnt have any where to unfold the fabric to let it decrease.

     

    also blimming amazon chinese sellers finest sent two batches that are slightly different. Messaged and they cant guarantee the same batches its just pot luck but i can live with it and thats what matter ....... i recon lol

    Haha, love the fact you were watching the wee truck on the map waiting on her being delivered! Was great to meet you the other day mate, and think you've found a good one there. Looks mint in the photos, and if those wheels are Honda ones (there are a lot that look similar) those were in the accessory book when these were new, and suit it so well. 

    :cool:

    Yeah they are honda even has the 5th one in the back as a spare

    Looks nice that. Tbh the steering is heavy on these, could well be just how It is if not used to it. ( Or not depending on how heavy)

    Seems like a good purchase then. Nice fogs aswell. Would love to find some of them.

    Lol dave did say that about the fogs , said they were the ones that most people want

    Sorry been out cleaning and fixing the non functioning drivers window mechanism which was successful, tested the abs fault code and ordered up a fr sensor 

     

    And been out for various runs in it as i love driving it lol steerings quite heavy which im assuming is to do with it being low and i cant wait to remove the ep3 steering wheel and get an origional grandad spec on there

    Hi Mick are you on facebook? As probably going to be the best way to find one in my opinion.

    There is a civic5 Facebook group. And some others. Aerodeck owners and ma,mb,mc owners.( Or something similar :) )

    I've pulled myself away from it now, but was regularly cars for sale there.

    good luck on the hunt.

    Cheers fella 

     

    Yeah thats the only social media i have , only really use it to look at cars and guitars lol 

     

    Think i have one now thanks to facebook so fingers crossed i can be a participant and not a spectator soon
