I see you use a lot of Mymini stuff... ask pete. He is able to get OEM parts. I don't know if he can get the headliner and I don't know how much but its worh a try.

you would probably also want to change the visors, dome light, all six pillar covers and the o-s**t handles to black also. probably gonna be an expensive operation.

why not just buy some nice dark fabric like a fake suede and wrap everything? It would look loads better than the anthracite headliner, and cost less i would assume.

in the Uk the headliner is about £250 so about $500US then all the other bits are around £150-200 or $300-400, so all in you would get much change out of $1000...

this is my plan, find a reputable auto upholstery shop to do the headliner & visors. then use the proper prep & paint to finish the plastic bits. at last, a dark upper interior.

I've already purchased all of the painted plastic bits, however, would like to re-cover my headliner myself...

p.s. i'm not a huge fan of the alcantara or faux suede, has anybody used an actual headliner fabric (one w/o foam padding on the back?)
