    Default headliner material source

    Got this a a private message, but I believe that is of interest to many of you.

    Hi my name is Bill Stauffer

    I own (Headliner Express) here in orlando Florida USA.

    I have been in the Headliner Business here in Central Florida now for over 20 years. We specialise in Volvo,Saab,Jaguar,BMW,Porsche,Mercedes,Landrover,A udi & VW.

    Were in the process of having our Website updated and running before November 2007.

    www.HeadlinerExpress.com

    We will start selling Headliner Kits which will include the 1/8th inch Headliner Material & Spray Adhesive all in one package , that will do a complete job on either the 3 5 6 7 8 X series models .

    we will no longer be selling in 4 yard cuts on Ebay, but will start selling the Kits instead

    Prices in some modes will be lower in pricing other's higher because of adding the adhesive along with the material when shipping

    We will also be offer additional Accessories to our BMW lines such as ,Vinyl Floor Trays and Floor Mats,Acrylic Vent Shades,Sunroof Wind Deflectors - Clip on not drill on,Velour Dash Covers.

    Like your Shop we too work on the same vehicles here in the USA Full time. This is all we do is Headliner & Sunroof Repair on the vehicles mentioned above.

    Not that bad, considering that it is the right 1/8inch material and imported from Germany, as far as I understand.
    I know from experience that the shipping from Germany is about the same as the material cost net ex factory Germany.
    I just imported another 30 meters (length) roll from Germany of the grey headliner material with foam back.

    That prick took my money and ran. He wouldn't send the product, wouldn't give me my money back and wouldn't respond after a while. Do not deal with that ****er.

    Not that I was planning on it either way, I was just going to mention that Jo-Ann fabrics here in the US sells all manner of fabrics by the yard, at roughly 58 inches wide. They also sell foam by the roll, some more than thin enough to use for headliners. I'm actually going to one tonight to buy a bunch of suede for my door panels, headliner, and pillars. I'll post some pics when I get done with the work, probably won't be for a few days yet though. If you sign up for Jo-Ann's mailing list they'll email you all sorts of coupons on an almost daily basis (I don't mind, I signed up after all) for all kinds of online and in store discounts. Most people would assume that would lead to spam, but I set it up on an account that had never gotten spammed before, and after a year on the mailing list I still don't get any spam there.

    Note, I'm not affiliated in any way with Jo-Ann fabrics, I just figured I'd mention that you can purchase enough fake suede and foam to do the whole interior of a car for under $200.

    Glad to hear this. I was considering finally getting of my fat duff and redoing the touring.

    Hi Kriss

    I had my favourite trimmer supply (and install) the fabric. The colour match is very good and the texture is quite good too and its got the 1/8 foam backing. He said it is not hard to get in Australia. I would suggest you go to a few trimmers and see what they have. I'm sure that they will be able to get what you need.
