My 2013’s headliner and pillar trim are starting to show their age. The beige color looks somewhat dingy and shows every bit of dirt and picks up handprints very easily. There is some staining that I’m unable to remove which is beginning to trigger my OCD. My car has black carpet, grey seats, and the aforementioned beige pieces. Lately, I’ve been wondering how it would look if I ditched the beige for all black. I‘m thinking the two tone with the grey seats, door, and dash inserts would look pretty decent. Looking around the used parts market, it seems an all black headliner for a solid roof car is a unicorn.
That leads me to wonder about the feasibility of using some type of spray dye on the headliner and pillar trim. After tearing down the dash and door yesterday to replace the MCU bezel and rebuild a door handle, I’m fairly confident I could get all of pieces out for spraying. I’m not worried about the dye transferring to clothes or rubbing off.
Anyone have any experience with this method, or would it be better to have it recovered by an upholstery shop?
