retrimming ?

[Boosha]

I would like to get my hands on some alcantara for my corsa to retrim the roof lining.

Where could I get this from at a decent price ?
Would I have to rip the old roof lining off the plastic them retrim of just whack it on over the top ?
What about the sunroof, will that cause trouble ?

I have a mate whos mother is top notch on the sewing machine so that isnt an issue, its just where and how much i can get it for thanks !

PS would a black alcantara suit a white corsas gsi for the roof lining that is, hoping to trim the rest of the interior stage by stage and replace the grey carpet with black !

No actually I'm from your face.

black lining will make your interior dull and dingy i gad a black lining in my old nova and it made me deppressed
but its up to you

[Boosha]

thats some effect making you depressed. I thought it would be all cosy and that ?

[Gaz86]

if your going for cosy get it trimmed in cream suede as well as the cream plastics around the windows and pillars

keep dark colours low down (below windowline)

[Boosha]

aye a was thinking of those bits also. not too sure bowt the cream though. too easy to dirty and too bright. have you no pictures of yours with dark interior lining ?

I got black suede roof lining in my nova I did myself about a year ago now. Personally I like it. Does make the car seem cosier, a lot of people have liked it they cant seem to stop touching it lmao.

I'll post some pics up.
