Update*** Merry Christmas Everyone!!! Last update of the year!
Started to wrap my headliner with black tweed.
Supplies - I didn't use the Scotch tape. I don't know why I grabbed it. Haha. There's my handy dandy Starbucks gold card which I don't use anymore because I use the starbucks app on my phone to pay for my drinks now. :thumbs up
Material
Bought an extra headliner so I can work on it outside the car.
It's a wrap yo!
Also started spraying all the little trimmings and panels black during the same time.
I couldn't figure out a way to pull the moonroof panel off so I resorted to pulling the entire moonroof. That s*** was a b**** to carry out of the car because it's pretty heavy and very awkward to hold. It also had sharp edges too so I had to be extra careful for it not to pierce my seats or anything else. It would've have been a lot easier to have a friend lend an extra hand carrying it out.
It's a wrap!
Started working on the other miscellaneous panels and pieces; such as,
Map Light, Dome Light, Rearview mirror cover, Sunvisor holder, A pillar, B to C pillar panel, Seat belt cover, headliner screw, moonroof weather stripping trim, rear trunk weather stripping trim, and clothes hanger piece.
I didn't really take pics of them while spraying.

And INSTALLED!
Overall, I am very happy with the results. It's not perfect but it sure is a hell of a lot better than before (stock). :thumbs up
I have yet to figure out a way to wrap my Sunvisors neatly and cleanly in a way that I would be happy with. So I will be going to a local Autobody shop in town that does partial Upholstery to get a quote and their recommendation.
Other problems, my moonroof opens very slowly now with the panel in the closed position. I believe the wrap may have been a little too thick for it too move as smoothly as before but if I open it manually before then my moonroof opens at its normal pace.
Sidenote: I wish I would have thought about it more before cutting the holes in the headliner wrap for the "b****" handles so that the wrap could have just deleted it all together for a more cleaner look. But now it's too late and I am stuck with it. I ended up spraying the handle but don't feel like it will hold up so I will be looking for another set of plugs to delete it.

Thanks Joe!
Thanks bro! Lots of man hours put into her. Haha.
Yeah, I shaved it myself. I cut off the license plate box then re-plastic weld it back on with leftover polyurethane material all around the perimeter and the lice plate holes. Then I bondo'd both sides, front and behind for more structural support. Then shape out the front and paint.
Yeah it did! I'm glad I didn't either haha. I remember in my Beginning Art course, I learned that a pattern or design is more better when it is done in larger amounts or a larger surface area and its true. Haha.
Plus, I missed the 30 day return policy and they wanted a 20% restocking fee so I felt like it wouldn't be worth it anyways.
Yeah sitting inside my car feels completely different now, Haha. :thumbs up
