I want to make my headlining in my saxo black, but i dont really want the bother of re-carpeting it, so will black spray paint be ok if i take my time with it?

in my opinion wouldn't it look quite tacky? i don't mean in a bad way but with the texture of the roof lining; wouldn't it become like a jumper does when rubbed with celotape!
cant explain it :P
Just do it tbh and make sure you tape up plastics and windows lol

Lol well i will take the roof out of the car to make it easier, i mean you can only just try it anyway, if it goes tits up then ill just go to scrappy buy new headliner.

But IMO i think it would look ok, cos it will be black and you hardly take any notice of the roof ;)

It looks good when it's done. Pair it with the 106 pillar covers which are black and your onto a winner :)

yeah if u do the pillars and the roof it could come off pretty smart

just test a few areas with diff types of spray cans and see which gives the best results!!

let us know how it works out! maybe be tempted with it!! :)
