      I see Vlad captured me in one of the pictures...the car is a work of art, much like all of the cars that come out of Vlad shop. Levent definitely is right on regarding the headliner, the pictures don't do it much justice and the rear deck was done with duplicolor.

        Used a sponge brush, goes on really well, two coats on and its pretty good, 3 coats and it will look close to the real thing...
        I have a giant roll of that thin painter's plastic, I was going to use that to just shroud everything that might get dripped on. Thanks for the tip!

                    Would it be an issue if you let me know what you used to dye the headliner? And as to how you went about doing it?

                    That would be real great!

                      Just read through the entire thread, can't wait to see how this comes out! Now I want to stop by the shop on my way to Manhattan in a couple weeks. Actually now that I think about it, what would it cost to have you install some IS side skirts for me? I have all the parts from the dealer already.

                        It says what he used like 1 page back, and how he did it. Try reading.
