gotta seal and paint the headliner, then i'll be pulling the car into the shop and getting started on the body work. my plans are fabbing my own evil eye hood, spraying it gm color stryker blue, and dropping it on 17s. no body kits/wings or anything like that haha. here's a few pics for now

I'm not seeing any pics...

Sounds like you've got some nice subtle mods planned for it. Looking forward to seeing progress pictures.

painted the headliner today.. needs a good sanding and recoat due to idiots in the shop..

I have always wondered how hard it was to get one of those back in after it was hardened. I have always had to bend mine a bit to get it back in, and mine is stock.

Looks cool.


But gotta ask...... Why a blue headliner in a red car

jason- i'm not looking forward to finding out lol..
philly- the car is going blue also, if you read my first post.

Looks nice what did u do to the liner to prep it for paint?

3 coats of fiberglass resin, sanding smooth between every coat. 3 coats of primer and 1 coat of sealer. total pita, i'll never do it again!

If you thought the headliner was a pain, you better be paying a pro to do the color change/body work on your car.......

i've painted vehicles before..

love it! lots of progress pics please

I say removing the door might help install it lol


GMR has got nothing on this

I have to put new door pins in anyway..haha. anyone have any suggestions for stopping all the interior rattling in j's? aggravates the @!#$ out of me!! i resprayed the liner today, by the way.

Looks amazing!

got some shots of the headliner with a real camera, not a great one but you can actually see the color now. I really love this color. looks awesome in the sun. I tried to fit the headliner in my car today and there's no way its going in without taking either one or both of the seats out ): I'll be starting the bodywork in like 2 weeks when I get back to the shop from vacation.

freaking awesome i love it.

wow good job

That blue looks familiar. What is the name of it?

It's not a GM color or anything, its Starburst Blue Metallic from Dupont/Nason. Happy holidays everyone!!

Ahh ok. Reminds me a lot of Intense Blue Pearl which was a Dodge color.

I almost went with Stryker blue from the G8 family, but glad I went with this color it's really growing on me! I think it'll look nasty with some CF accents like mirrors

put the headliner in the fire tonight, but I'm having fitment issues where the a and b pillar panels meet the headliner.. anyone have any suggestions? i'd rather not hack into the headliner but I bet i'll need to. Any suggestions as to how I should go about doing that??
