Re: rebuiding a tranny
Go to walmart, get this(from the automotive section)...
http://duplicolor.com/products/vinyl.html
my shit was extremely purple, and looked horrible. the paint made the sunroof liner a VERY little "gloppy", but it definately is better than the faded look. i was kinda in a rush too, so i used heavy coats. thin coats would prolly make it turn out very good.

Quick Fix for faded sunroof liners
Comments post...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
canadianshark74 - thanks for the tip,
I will have to do that soon.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
nexuz - Do you know if that will work on the dash? Some odd reason, mine is a very lighter shade then the door pieces. There is mention on HyundaiWebtech (somewhere) of a 'wax' type thing [been a while since i saw it].. that will return your crash pad to black.
But, if nobody can help here, it is back to plan (A).. total removal of interior.. and viynl dye all pieces a medium grey, and replace headliner with tweed and aluminum.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
tibby01 - well, it is vinyl/fabric paint, i dont know if i would paint the crash pad with it though. maybe try krylon if you are looking for a spray on paint.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
REDZMAN - Fantastic man, really.
Is it hard to take that sucka out?
After lookin at that website...
I'm doin mine blue.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
tibby01 - no, not hard at all. you just push up on it.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
boricua - I'm glad I looked at this because my sunroof is going through the same problem now.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
