seen them flocked before. pretty expensive i think though as the plastics are sent away and covered in a special type of glue then flocked.does look cool if done properly though

a/b pillars should be easy enough (if their plastic), take it off, stretch the fabric/film round while spraying it with adhesive at the same time, put it back on! The headliner will be more difficult though, its alot harder to get adhesive to stick from fabric to fabric, unless your headliners plastic, or can be sanded down to make a more sturdy surface?

i have seen headlinings done with fabric before,was just glued as chris is saying then stapled around the back,guess it depends on the shape of the roof lining too,as lots of curves will make it hard to get a descent shape or the fabric to match the original shape

^ Suede does actually look nasty imo <!-- s:lol: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_lol.gif" alt=":lol:" title="Laughing" /><!-- s:lol: --> Still, I like the colour coded plastics, looks pretty swish, and gives you an idea on the work involved on covering it all!
