rooflining dropped

happens a lot to European cars in Indonesian heat.
i figured since i'm going to have to have it fixed, might as well do something with it. so i changed it to red suede to match the exterior. LOL.

i'm happy with it but go ahead and flame if you think i went overboard. sarcasm most welcome!!

I wouldn't of done it but fair play. It looks pretty good. Need better shots though to see it with the whole interior. Did you wrap it or a shop?

cheers for the comments.

had it done by interior shop. they've done hundreds of these over the years. BMW's, Mercedes, Jags, for some reason after 4-5 years the roofs keep falling down on the owners lol. strangely, it never happens to Japanese or non-European cars.
luckily i found a guy who does good work for crazy cheap price. cost me US100 bucks and that's already including their best lining. would have cost 60 bucks with an inferior one (thinner material). takes 2 days to do. i should have taken a pic of when it started to drop, if you putt off the repairing, the lining touches your head . this doesn't happen to you guys in the western hemisphere?

plaid would have been nice, maybe even with the leather interior. but there's no chance of me finding that sort of material here.

Where on earth did you buy the plaid from? I remember group buys on here years ago but that stuff cost a small fortune.
