How to customize your headliner to any fabric of your choice! - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

Not sure if this is the right spot to post this but here is a quick video I made of me changing my headliner to a floral one!

It was fairly easy, all you'll need is any fabric of your choice and spray adhesive!

LMK what you think!

Malik · 08-31-2016, 12:18 AM

worth the time..

should post this in the the DIY archive section... or whatever its called.

Mikuni · 08-31-2016, 12:21 AM

Turned out surprisingly well. Makes me want to try it out.

zbarsuglia · 09-01-2016, 11:52 PM

Looks good! I sub'd to your channel. I live on YouTube.

I'm trying to do this soon but I'm going to be boring and go black. I have all black s15 interior bits except for the black sunroof switch panel. I can't find it.

I'm not crazy enough for the floral. But it looks good!

for anyone NOT wanting to waste their time, you have to source the proper spray adhesive, not just any old one is going to work in fact even some say right on the can "not for use in headliners". I am willing to bet this dude was so pumped about putting out a DIY video of stuff that he learned elsewhere on the internet that he has no idea that his liner is about to start sagging from the heat in 1 week.

Jorgs_7 · 09-02-2016, 08:56 AM

Had a buddy do this, fabric began to sag over time. He insisted to be very generous with the adhesive on the next try. Mines filthy as F. Ill do this eventually.

ZenkiKid · 09-02-2016, 09:14 AM

Yup definitely looks good but I wouldnt be surprised that it started to sag especially with how hot it still gets here in California.

KAT-PWR · 09-02-2016, 11:26 AM

Dap landao top cement. Or it will lift

Standard · 09-02-2016, 06:05 PM

Yeah it will probably sag, even some of the 3m products don't hold up. I've done this before. and no pics, but I ended up just spraying the stock headliner with black fabric spray paint. It turned out really well actually and has held up for a few years so far with no signs of fading

My buddy in the video showed me how to do it actually. And if you look at the video when I show his interior, you can see there's no sagging. He's had it like that for over a year now.

Loved how it turned out. I'll definitely do this to my 240 in the future.

Bushido · 09-06-2016, 07:02 PM

every 240 gotta have that fruity ass fabric print. ILL

StatticMyke · 09-09-2016, 07:46 AM

Good video. Headliner looks good as well.

You forgot to remove the 20yr old material thats deteriorating before you laid the new material down.

mewantkouki · 09-12-2016, 11:13 AM

^ +1 and use contact adhesive or it's a waste of time.
