aminder 4 Posted April 14, 2010 Report Share Posted April 14, 2010 I've been looking into this, I've heard a few people use this stuff below from halfords. Let us know how you get along if you do mate.As for pillars I've decided to cloth wrap them to be on safe side.http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/product_storeId_10001_catalogId_10151_productId_173967_langId_-1_categoryId_165495http://www.vwwatercooled.org.au/f22/diy-headlining-fabric-replacement-pic-intensive-31256.html Link to post Share on other sites

theblueflash 0 Posted April 14, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 14, 2010 i went into halfords on the way home from work. didnt see any of those. ive got autoglym black dye for the lining as ive used it before and its awsome on fabrics. just not ideal for plastics. tried the passenger sun visor and messed that up already so gonna need another. i bought matt black paint to try. have done the drivers visor now and its currently drying it looks good so far. will get some pics up as soon as i can.
