Also, for a STS, go with maddog or Fidanza?
madog and don't piss with your headliner ... take that from personal experience.

Why not? Just cuz you suck at it doesn't mean it won't turn out good for other people. I personally saw this one:

And it turned out good, although I still the dude smoke's alot of crack or something. Not my cup of tea but damn it looked cool.

that's not a headliner ... that's paint on the actual roof.

No one said i suck at it, your immature mind is at work again.
Go ahead and mess with the headliner, but when you run into problems i'll be the first to say told you so.
There are certain ways and products to use to redo a fabric headliner to get it to work properly.
If it's not done with those then it simply won't work.

Um, that's his actual headliner, NOT the roof. I picked up my white coupe from him in July and saw it.

You see the stuff on his visors? Same shit there. Good call.

And if there are "proper" ways to do it, and you tried, and failed. Then you suck at it.

Yup, his looks damn nice in person too. Although he spent WAY too much time on minor details on his car lol. Powdercoated pretty much the whole suspension a year or two ago. Looks good though but I wouldn't do it.

lol chip your retard comes out more and more.
The roof of a car is defined as a headliner not the visors.
The roof has been painted.
If you notice on the visors, it actually looks like fabric because of the repeat pattern across the surface.
I'm not debating the visors here though, it's the headliner in question and lack there of in this case.

There is no fabric that looks like that, if there is then tell me where it's sold at; because i am not aware of any fabric that is that thin with paint strokes like that.

I've done a headliner more than once and the first time i did it i failed at it.
You get better with each try, but it's not something you want to mess with because it can be disastrous, specially if you can't find a replacement.

His roof is not fucking painted, I touched it. He wrapped it in vinyl or something. How do you know what it is without seeing it in person? He showed it to me when I dropped off the 2.4 and picked up my white car. Why do you always insist on arguing about shit you have no clue about? It's not like I randomly found that pic online.

i just asked for proof of where he got a custom painted "vinyl" layout like that.

I've never seen an airbrushed vinyl, fabric, w/e it may be .. so i'm asking for proof of where he could get something like that.
That picture is hard to believe it's any type of vinyl or fabric without seeing it in person.

Well I saw it in person, up close. I don't think it's fabric, but some sort of vinyl or something, I'll ask him for ya. But I know it wasn't just a painted roof. There's shit that goes across the roof anyways if I recall correctly. I'll check when I swap the good headliner from my white coupe to the black one since the black one got torched one night somehow :lol:

Wow, both of you have to stop pissing on my project log.

I'm not being disrespectful to you guys, but both of you are being to me.

Also, I DO appreciate the input on the headliner. I want to but something in there to give it the "embossed" look like this:

I was thinking something gay like a heart or something...

The definition of a NEON
A great domestic compact car whose rapidly disappearing taillights are most typically seen through the windshields of Honda Civics, Chevy Cavaliers, and other assorted shitboxes.
