super 90 is good, but the shit i used holds vinyl tops on, that shit is like cement

What adhesive did you use for the headliner? I used Super 90 and applied liberally and it held no problems even in extreme heat/cold. If you used Super 77 that might have been why it drooped, I've heard of people having that problem with Super 77/80 but not yet from people who use Super 90. Theres also headliner/cloth adhesive they sell at Autozone that has been proven to work pretty well.

sorry it's been so long. had a fairly low point in my life the day before SoWo, culminating in no paint, no visit to SoWo, and a broken cell phone (which is how i got on the internet)
but i've gotten small work done.
first, the failure that is my headliner.


looks good/decent, right? well 1 day in 90* weather and ALL of the adhesive failed on me, making all the fabric come off and droop down. no pics of the failure, but now i'm back to square one with the headliner. i think i'm just going to run headliner-less and do a paint job where it used to be. who knows.
other things i've gotten done:
-new emblem
-removed all stickers
-got everything for my new door panels sourced, but no actual panel yet, so that's on hold.
-still riding on 12's and paint is still no where near done.
oh yea, the cell was also my camera, so no pics until i get a new phone/camera.
i fail. hard.

i might be picking up a '93 festiva but its got the full 1.8L turbo swap (just over 250hp at the wheels)
god the festiva is an ugly ass car. but i think there is no more fun car to drive. especially when you can blow the doors off of almost any car out there
