Swapped headliner

[Bird]

I have a TDI

Has anyone swapped out the light gray headliner and a,b,c, pillars for GTI black?


Thinking of doing this this coming season. Wanted experiences.

What was the price they quoted ?

$1500 just for the parts. no labor.

Holy crap !! I have seen entire running salvage title mk6 gti's for 10k !! Only problem was that the shops wanted me to buy the whole car or nothing at all.... No one wanted to swap headliners. How much would covering the roof liner and pillars with alcantara cost ?

i imagine it wouldn't be much cheaper than that. that headliner is a bitch from what i gather. especially if you have a sunroof.

i have already changed out my seats with brown leather in the TDI, because i hate the cloth seats.
