Looks great! you should do the headliner in suede or alcantara

I know all of that exists but when used to go dark to light, I hear it doesn't work out so well and requires much more product to even look semi decent.

There's a guy on bimmerofrums that went from black to cinnamon as well and he said that it works really well and doesn't rub off, but when he details the interior and uses some kind of chemical on the seats, it pulls some of the dye up and he just reapplies it.


It sounds like a lot more of a hassle than just reupholstering to me, but I guess doing it even a few times will still be considerably cheaper than getting all that stuff reupholstered

Thanks! yeah im thinking about dye/dress or just buy a original black headliner and all details.. mm but it is fun to learn new stuff aswell
