tweed or painted interior

i was wondering if anyone knew which one would be the most easiest to do?? and if anyone has any pictures of both interiors. i dont know which way to go with my interior. the only advantage i have with tweed over the painting , is my father-in-law knows how to do tweed though he lives 3 hours away from me. also any websites where i could buy tweed or good interior paint . thanks a million

using fabric to change the interior appearance comes out better looking, as long as the work is done right. painting it can look pretty good, but it will require a lot of prep work for the paint to stick to the plastic and look good.

id recommend getting a piece of tweed and wrapping a spare interior part like a pillar or a glovebox. if you like how it looks, go for the rest of it. the only parts that are hard about interiors is concave curves (ones that curve inward).

thanks for the input. do you know where i can get tweed at?? i try to look up plces that sell tweed but it not getting me too far

ebay has some. i got suede from ebay, and used it for my interior.

i jsut went to a fabric store picked up 2 years of black velvet and put it on my old healiner came out really well. it onyl cost me 16 for fabric and spray adhesive.

yeah definitely use fabric, do-it-yourself paint jobs crack easily and don't last long if you don't do it correctly

I'd suggest looking in your phone book for a fabric wholesale shop or something along those lines. I looked all over in stores selling fabric for cloths and furniture but no1 had what I needed.

Tweed looks MUCH nicer than paint, it is just more expensive and harder to install.

mine is tweeded Http://www.streetsourcemag.com/Profile.aspx?profileid=6954 ill let u know right now the dash and very rear panels are a complete bitch to wrap because of all the curves.... i got my tweed from http://shop.store.yahoo.com/yourautotrim-store/index.html they have good prices and quick shipping

yea, tweed is a HUGE bitch when wrapping curvy things, i didnt do my 4th gen but i did do a vette and a few street rods and the dashes were a bitch to do.

thnaks for the advice. will you be seeing any creases when the corners or curves are tweeded?? are is there away to not show that

it depends on how well u do it, if ur good enough at it, no u wont see creases. if ur not that great then yea u prolly will. best bet when doing the dash would be to do the top and bottom in 2 separate pieces. just take a panel like one in the back and practice on it untill you know what your doing exactly

hey im putting sway on my door panels i got the material but what do i put in on with? What type of adhesive do I use?
