UPDATE!!! Sueded Headliner and SLP Grille finished! :D (many pics)
 
Let me start off by thanking Enzo for the tips and time he provided to answer my questions :thumbsup:

So i finally finished up the monte today. Got the headliner all done and installed 2 days ago, also did some painting for my slp grille install. Decided to paint the surround on the grille to match my car and aslo painted the bottom grille black to resemble the one that SLP makes, turned out pretty good
Also resprayed the plate filler with the correct white this time :p, ehh looks a tiny bit off still but better than it was before :thumbsup:
Decided to debadge the monte too, hmmm what else...... :confused:
Anyways here's the pics.. lol Enjoy
all of the headliner, visors and slider were done by yours truly ;)
Let me know how she looks (monte)

She's naked!! :eek: lol

Here's my visors taken apart, i must say these are fairly easy to take apart, i experimented with the GP ones i had first so i knew what i was doing after that

Headliner finished! Only part that wasn't perfect is where the visors screw on and where the Oh **** handle bolts on because of the fabric not being very stretchy :(

I'm not sold on the suede, something I think I'd have to see in person.

Everything looks great though!

Estimated prices:
Fabric- $40
Adhesive- $17
Paint-$7
Exacto knife- $8
And that's about all I used, so a little under $80 :thumbsup:
But patience and time is the key ;) lol
