Default Headliner complete color change!

Went from black to red.....INCREDIBLE!

I love how sexy this coupe is becoming! Every bit the SUPERCAR look as I can get it!

I have the rear speaker trim to do and that'll complete the transformation. At least for a few months. I may still buy the complete carpeting kit in Torch Red for the car...but I'm in no hurry for that till the late fall or winter.

I used some good fleece and 3M super adhesive. Learning as I go.

I once was completely shocked to learn about some custom interior work and the HUGE amount of money it cost to pay for it.
BUT in RETROSPECT.... I can see this costing thousands of $$$$ after all the labor involved and preparation steps required.

I no longer am shocked.... I understand.

Always have loved the red interiors dating back to the C1's. The inside of your ride is beautiful. Nice work.

This is my other Vette, one of the classic iconic color schemes Corvettes are famous for!

Red interiors on Vettes are so beautiful!
