Opinions on rewrapping Headliner in Alcantara

My headliner is very saggy thanks to florida and PO's IDGAF mentality towards it. and the backing has failed on basically all other cloth wrapped parts too.


I decided to get it rewrapped and discovered it was not /that/ much to get the entire top trim (headliner, pillars, sunshade) redone in real alcantara

I have fox red non-extended interior and am difficult to decide on what color i should get, i am looking for people's opinions, and if i should also get other things wrapped to complete the look, eg. the dash?

Hard to go wrong with a neutral color like that dark grey, otherwise just depends on what color scheme you're going for with the car. Out of curiosity how much did they quote you for this type of work?

Leave the dash, alcantara becomes a hassle to keep clean and looks gross after awhile. I would just stick the same colour as the original headliner so its not outta place.

Damn that's a good price. Would cost at least double around here for that same work.
