I dig it. A lot.

My doors spears are already suede so I reckon having the roof match would be killer.

Can't believe how cheap it was tbh.

Nice work.

just done this in the ute last week and I love it looks heaps better

as people have said should have been an option from the factory

Is suede the only material to use on the roof lining? The way that suede changes colour (direction it is touched) would annoy the hell out of me lol

apart from that it looks WAY better, much like the commodores which are all black. it looks 100x better

[Chich]

you can use pretty much whatever material you want.and if you really want I dont see why you couldnt just dye/ paint the material which is already on there if you wanted to do it even cheaper again...

I must be the only one that likes the roof lining colour I was going to do my seats that colour in leather.

[bentles]

nah I love it too. I wana do biege / tan leather trim to match roof.

I dont like the all black look.

not to mention its a different black to the rest of car.

but its your car so go for it....

here is a couple of pics of mine

as onboost suggested I actually spray died my lining it looks pretty good but I am not 100% happy with it so I will be getting it re lined the photos dont do it justice the roof actually matches the other pieces and the painted sections apear alot darker they actually match the rest of the interior very well

they are however prone to scratching/chipping quite easily

As Bluute has stated its hard to get a decent photo, pictures don't do it justice, real life does.

Roof, pillar trims and dash are all so very close in colour, maybe a poofteenth here or there out, but so so close it only shows up different under a flash

I went suade over the factory trim upon trimmers advice, softer, easier than trying to remove old material from the headlining board.

Dye can work with good results sometimes but its inconsistant, hence why did it first up and had it trimmed

Nice job Ryan, I recently trimmed all the beige components in my T in black suede. I trimmed all the pillar covers instead of painting. Since my car is black with 5% tint it looks sweet as. The only beige parts left are the visors and grab handles, am sizing up those parts in a VX Late model camira at the moment as they came out in black and will hopefully fit. Will have to try and put up some decents pics of it soon. But again, looking good.
