help the my roof lining is comming down, how much would it cost to fix

[belbelchic]

my roof linning is just starting to fall apart, i was wondering how much it would cost me to get it fixed, and any places i can go to get it fixed.

im from melbourne, and its a wagon

i got qouted 165 for my vp sedan roof, but im up in mackay qld so it might be different down there. and they need my car for 4 hours...

where in melb you from?

[nathans1987]

got a quokka?? go look at all the cars being wrecked u'd get a good one out of a damaged car with low k's for cheap like $10 i spose. i wouldnt pay 165 to fix if i couldnt find a good second hand one it'd get glued back by me with contact adhesive.

Thats what I'd do. Either buy a good one out of a wrecked vehicle, or replace it myself. The advantage with replacing it yourself is that you can customise it if you want.

its not hard 2 do i used 2 work next door 2 an upholseter so got 2 watch him do it all the time, he charge $100 2 do wagons $75 4 sedans.

U could prolly do it urself 4 like $50 all u need 2 do 2 do it urself is get some hood lining which u can get 4 bugger all, rip off the old hood linning, scrap away all the old glue and foam that came off the old hood lining then spray on some contact glue (like quick grip) spray both sides also and then lay it down tho 1 tip 1nc the 2 side touch theres no turning back so theres only 1 chance 2 do it properly as the glue is good shit lol helps if u have some1 helping u 2 hold it up while u line it up good luck

i dont lack the patience for doing it myself, i would probably end up gluing myself to the roof as well!!

linning is still good, not ripped or anything, just is undone now and sagging very baddly, and starting to look terrible.

im in thomastown

i made up a DIY thread today as i undertook this project about 2 weeks ago...
costed me about 100.

It seems simple enough, but i just couldnt do it myself, and dont know anyone thats skilled in that area, anyone know of some good places, around melbourne?? im from thomastown but dont want to drive far!

its looking real bad, and it doesnt help that i drive with my window half open going down the ring road at 90 goin to work and back, which has loosened it more!!

Doing it yourself is easy, got my new lining from the wreckers for $19 and only took a mate and myself 30 minutes including beer breaks to remove old lining and install new one.

As a temporary fix drawing pins work wonders, you can even run them in patterns so it looks good !!

[Furious_8]

I got a mobile guy to come to my work and only charged $150. I hate interior work always do more bad than good.

[belbelchic]

Yeh i might give the drawing pins a go until i found someone to do it for me

just check your seat before you sit down

[smokey_dj]

my mate and i could probly do it for you we did mine one night but used a lightweight blanket i now have a very 70's pimmed tigerskin imotation roof lining

basicly if you want sonething custom like that you find the lightweight blanket we come to you and chuck it up in the roof for $100

but id have to get my car back on the rd first to be able to get over thewre if you wanted us to do it

[belbelchic]

looks so much better now!!
