I've took an obsession over alcantara. I need it on my headliner and I need it now. My headliner atm is cream and it makes my new interior look awful, so I've sourced a black one. But since its such a pain removing it due to the sunroof I thought when its out I might as well get it wrapped in alcantara, along with the A pillars, parcel shelf and other trim bits.
I thought of doing it myself, few guys on bimmer forums have done it and it turned out looking well. But I haven't priced the material yet.
I've been told its £1000 to get it trimmed and not to touch it as the material is too dear to put on wrong.. but my optimism is telling me its no where near that sort of money.. I hope
So 3 questions
How much is alcantara and where can I get it ?? anthracite 9002 is the oem colour I need
Would it be stupid me attempting it myself? I want it perfect
How much would it be for someone to trim it for me and who can do it?
Bit of a strange one its a 540 btw so big headliner lol
