Anthracite Roofliner - Make the inside count just as much as they out side

Does anyone have a picture of theirs? Because with that kind of discription it didn't really describe anything at all!

Thanks!

Randy

just makes the headliner of the car and the a. b and c pillar covers a darker grey.

i wish they had a retrofit kit

I'll post a picture later this weekend for you. No contest between anthracite headliner and that light gray standard color in my book. I got mine with the anthracite dash as well. Cannot be beat.

It's 5am and still dark. I'm just prepping for a "North Shore" tour up highway 61 in Minnesota's Lake Superior. Fall colors should be awesome! Motor on.

There's a thread with tons of pics and comments; do a search for Anthracite Headliner. Check my gallery as well.

There are pics in my gallery here: http://www.mini2.com/gallery/persona...ery_19350.html

Incidentally, if you're in Canada you can only get the anthracite roofliner as part of the sports pkg (foglights + DSC + 17" S-lites with all season or performance tires + anthracite roofliner).... on the S, anyway, not sure if that applies to the non-S.

I just ordered mine! :smile:

....i second that, cuz i would be forced to pick one up b4 anymore mods.

It is Awesome! GET IT!!! Worth the 200....

Oh I see... I think... it's just a darker color ceiling? Not the standard light grey? Thanks guys I think I know now...

It's a very nice option if you want that darker look. I think it's gotten a lot of attention because it's a new-ish feature, and we're all over that kinda thing. I prefer the lighter interior...so just go with what you personally like.

May I suggest the search function? There is an extensive thread here with multiple photos.

I just ordered my 06 MCS. For the interior we ordered the Cordoba beige leather with Anthracite dash. I ordered the anthracite roofliner because I thought that the lighter colored one would add yet another feature to catch your eye. My mother-in-law is an interior designer and I have learned much from her over the years. In this case,since the center of my seats would be a contrasting color to the doors, dash and sides of the seat I didn't want anymore. However, my second choice was to do the all black seats with anthracite dash, in that case I would have left the roofliner the lighter color since some contrast would be needed in that setup.
I was lucky because when I got to the dealer to do my actual order they had my exact car except the roofliner and I knew the I would like it better with the Anthracite, which is why I didn't buy the one at the dealer.
They also had 8-10 other cars in the showroom some with the lighter and some without, and I don't think any of them looked "bad" , both roofliners are neutral enough that it will work either way.
Good luck,
Annette

i would get it but already have my 'Min Coop' and i dont think its available as a retro fit kit like Rick stated in earlier post!!

I don't care for it. Makes the interior too dark. Overpriced and overhyped IMO.

jesus what is this, like the 10th thread on "should I get" the anthracite headliner? it's classy, elegant, and goes great with the reds and the blues. U won't regret it! jimbo

I will order it if they ever make a retrofit kit.

The anthracite roof liner looks great.

However, "Wahoo" is a DS/W. I have anthracite dash and standard light gray roof liner. I like the way interior repeats the exterior.

I just put a picture of it up in my gallery. I am very pleased with it - a nice integrated look for the interior of the car.

LOL, honestly guys, lighten up. You bunch of MINI fanatics, arguing about head liner colors

Its a color, that means its mostly a personal taste thing

I have my MCS with anthracite headliner for a year already, I got them when it was still free of charge. I personally like it, the only drawback is it shows the finger scratches easier. They just show as white marks.
