Had a bit of a **** fight with some of the Interior items

I redid the headliner again... found a modern oem-ish (foam backed) black fabric headliner..

and also reinforced some late door cards and resin-d the back sides of these cards to waterproof them somewhat!

flagged the tartan wrap for the door cards and found a material as close as possible to stock/oem

so with Window winder holes and mirror adjusters gone now... the door cards looking super clean!

This will be amazing once it's finished! Fantastic job!

Good effort on the interior bits, I was going to do my headliner by myself, but got a professional to do it due to the messiness of the job, yours looks excellent!

The door cards look awesome as well!

If this is a mini-project, I would like to see some of your big projects?

Little bit more behind the scenes for for the Cards to go yet, this is the final shot I'll post of them until they are all fitted in 'le' vehicle!

Any who yesterday was the big day.

Pickup time! GT Refinishers did Jawdropping work... these guys are "talent!" Massive Result from a Tinature Panel & Paint shop!

I suggest liking them on Facebook (even thou they are over here in little old NZ they seem to get a lot of Australia customers too..)
