As everyone here knows, the idea of getting rid of the Honda has been come up time and time again. It almost came to fruition last week as I was on my way to trade it in for a new to me 2006 BMW 3 Series. Nevertheless, that deal fell through which left me questioning what I really wanted to do. As you also know, I stripped out most all of my mods and put the car back to stock and have not really put much thought into the car.

Well as the title of the thread says, I may be in some serious trouble. As some of you know, my headliner has been hanging down and driving me crazy. After the deal fell through on the new to me ride, I decided that it would be in my best financial interest to just keep the Accord and fix some of the things that have been driving me nuts. Well, I received the car back today after being gone a week at one of my favorite local auto customization shops and the below pictures are the results of the new modification. Yes, it is a new type of plush suede material, the entire headliner, visors, and pillars were done.

The scary part is that the mod bug has hit me hard and I want to do all sorts of new things to the car now. I am in trouble I think. I might be looking at new suspension, exhaust and intake. After taking everything off the car, to start putting back stuff....oh my. First picture is a clean, detailed version of the car.

shit looks hot man i like the contrast of colors

Nice! I personally would've gone with black suede or w/e material that is LOL, but still looks super clean!


Off-topic -- where did you get those white reflectors for your headlights?

Looks hot!!! I'd be so happy to see this thing modded up again.

Looks sharp!  Did it take an entire week to get that done?

Some of the time was waiting for a new material that had built in padding. So I dropped the car off to get the work done, but they could not really finish it until obviously they had all the material. They did an amazing job. Pictures do not do it justice.

Tein suspension anyone? hmmm....

Sweet man!!  I like it a lot.  I wish I could get something like that done.  Actually, I wish I could do that myself.  That shop needs to give me a job.  I think you should get Tein's man.  There's a guy in south FL that's selling his SS.  I want to get them, but can't afford to right now.  I think you should.

Moved to Interior Styling & Maintenance forum.

that does look pimp dude, what is the material actually?  how much was the damage?  and last but not least, we there other color options, like black or charcoal, etc?

ah. so that's what it looks like with the visors wrapped in suede lol. i did the same thing skizot did in black suede but i deleted the front visors for a smoother look

That looks amazing... curious how much do have the whole thing done? I'm considering doing something along those lines.

pics?

The headliner looks awesome!

what did that run you?

Honestly the pictures do not do it justice. It is far nicer looking in person. As for cost, it was too much, but with Honda wanting $700 to replace just the headliner, I figured I might as well pay similar and get it done nicer.

u paid too much if u paid $700 for the headliner and everything.

i paid $300 for everything i got done, a/b/c pillars and headliner wrapped in black suede.

here's pics

Looks great!

Are your back window tints fading?

nice - looks great.  suede is mad sexy

No, I think it just the angle and time of day of the picture. As for the price. Don't worry, I got a great deal. I was just sharing what Honda wanted for the headliner alone, which is what prompted me to look into other options. I figured if it was going to cost me that to do the headliner through the dealer, might as well pay the same for something better. I definitely got something better and got a great deal.

Looks nice and clean Scott

Wow that loks great man...

i apologize for reviving an old thread, but this question goes out to OP:

can you pm me the place where you got the headliner & pillar work done?  my headliner is coming off and this really bugs me, thank you so much.  i think 300 is a great price for something that is a pita to normally do.  yours look really good in the grey and i may go that route.

Unfortunately, I doubt you're going to get Scott to chime in on here. He's been inactive for a long time.

Surprise! Still around, just never post. I have sold the Honda and I was not the one that paid $300 for the install, re-read the previous posts :-)

BMW coupe Scott?

Scott is still alive?

Holy shit! Jeez Scott, if you're still around, post up every now and then. Why do it when we start talking about you?

what happened with the 911

So what did you pay for the liner then?
