headliner project?

Well, if you glass it out of the car can you get it back in? It won't bend after glassing, so that would be the first thing to check.Certified Security Specialist

I've been sick lately, sorry I won't be on much.

yea, thats why i was asking if anyone has tackled this before. Im not even positive i can get the headliner out. thanx

I need to take the seats out of my car and work some magic with a friend helping me. It can be done, if need be take the winshield out, just kidding.Why do you ask if I ate paint chips when I was younger?

Well i am glassing the top dash as well, so i very well may have the windshield removeed, do you think i should just try and do the entire project in one shot? Im looking at my windshield now and the pillars seem to move inwar i dont know how much easier it would be to get the liner out.

2 things... one- you wont be able to get that headliner in after you glass it. Not in one piece anyhoe. so you could get creative and cut it into thirds after you glass it, give it a creative cut (wavy, or zig zag maybe) paint it and reinstall it with some inserts where the cuts are. Like plexi with led lighting behind, or cut abs that fits the cuts and leave a 16th of an inch to wrap some suede or vinyl around it. Just an idea. It really wouldnt be that hard to do. I would definitly recomend some hush mat on the roof if you do this as your system will make your new hardened headliner have a horrible slapping and rattling sound. Possibly bad enough to ruin your new paint work your doing... two- you dont have to take your headliner out to glass your dash. Just take the dash out! LOL. Its hard in some vehicles, but not so bad in most. If this is your first time doing this just take your time. get baggies and mark them with where the bolts and screw came from exactly and you will be fine. I need to upload some pics, but I am currently working on glassing the rear deck of a 94 deville to hole two sets of components. Your only limited to your imagination with glassing man.

Lathan, my friend glassed his grand prix's headliner in th car (sanded it and painted as well......SUPOSEDLY it looks really good, ive yet to see the final product. Do you think this is feasible, or would i be better off just cutting mine like you had originially suggested and working it outside the car?

can I ask why you are planning on glassing it? Why not just buy about two to three feet of black leather and re-upholster it yourself? It's not hard really, just buy spray adhesive and leather. It would match your interior alot better, you'd be able to get it in there that much easier, and better yet it won't take as long as glassing it would. If you're interested let me know and I can give you the links.
