Default Anyone changed the color of their headliner/trim

I've got a black on black v, and i'm having an upholstery shop rewrap the pillar trim, headliner, visors, and sunroof cover. I'm not a big fan of the 2 tone black/grey interior. Anyone else done this? How much did you spend?

what material are you using anyways? I kept tossing the idea around of doing the headliner/pillars in beige suede....had black suede in my camaro and it really was a nice touch.

i have beige and love it, seats look brand new/seude as well. i did put black embroidered V floor mats which def. broke up the beige. i imagine redoing the interior would be pricey but let us know.

back when i had my last car a group of ladies in china town would do it for pretty cheap and it looked great. i used to see the finished photos of suede, alcantara and what not.

that was many moons ago and i havent heard if they are still doing it.

I wouldnt mind having a black headliner to go with my beige interior

I hated beige before I bought my car... Now I'm looking for a parts car to swap black into mine with.
