A couple of questions?

1) Where do you get the suede? (also approx how much you need and $$$)
2) what kind of glue did you use to stick the fabric o? (ex plasic, and headliner)


thankx

is it micro-suede or real? What glue did you use?

Also how did you remove the roof and front pillers?

the micro fiber stuff (not real suede) can usually be found at any fabric store like Joann's or hancock, etc...as for the glue i'm not 100% sure, but i believe most people use 3m spray adhesive...i'm looking to take this project on my own soon too

i bought my suede from Yardage town. its micro super suede. i doubt anyone will spend $40 a yard for the real stuff.. i bought my material at the right time.. yardage town had a big pre 4th of July %50 off sale. so you know i racked up on the material.. the reason i said its better to used the Micro super suede. because you can stretch the crap out of it V.S real suede.. also the Super suede has a very dark and rich luck to it.. JMO

check out my suede work.

I got the suede from this place and the glue I used was 3m spray adhesive. So far its half way into the summer, I have no tinted windows, and I have noticed absolutely zero discoloration. The suede looks just as it did when I put it in, so I'm very happy with the way everything turned out.
