SiRge Posted July 20, 2015 Share Posted July 20, 2015 Fairly minimal needs, just a headliner (Which i have the template for) and cover some plastic sunvisors. I just fear not having someone in the know and getting charged moonbeams for simple job. Kinda like a few years ago I went to an engineer as an off-the-streeter and getting charged $100 for 3 pieces of rod... never again 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tortron Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 Nice headliner. I considerwd doing a red tuck and roll for mine, but was worried the inside would look.like a mouth/lady cave haha. Ended up just plain black and is also very hard to photograph 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
64valiant Posted July 22, 2015 Author Share Posted July 22, 2015 cheers. chose black cause its easy to change the color scheme of the car and have it still match.had planned on doing all the stitching in red but then realized it'd over power it all.does make it hard to pick up on the detail when your looking at the upholstery but meh its all good.

64valiant Posted August 10, 2015 Author Share Posted August 10, 2015 hahahaha cheers Brent! i knew some one could help me out with this situation. or i could just swap it all to left hook. this way my left arm would get a tan during summer.wait to here back from them about what we are going to do.buzbug in chch does a 3 inch narrowed beam which is not empi and they say wont need to be modified to fit.more a pain in the back side cause the didnt even tell me they only come left hook only Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghostchips Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 You can't get it modified for RHD? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
64valiant Posted August 10, 2015 Author Share Posted August 10, 2015 yea i can but i brought it with the understanding it would just bolt straight in.didnt want to fluff around with modifying it to fit or i would have just modified my original beam and saved the money i just spent on it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
