    Used felt paper( roofing paper will work),the pattern was very close to the stock head liner removed!
    Used a panel board from Home Depot for the hard board,screwed in place with self tapping ,large head 3/4'' & 1'' screws.Trimmed in place as I went with a air grinder & zip cutter!
    This will so much better than the stock bow one!
    Will use the same fabric I use @ rear wall & doors.
    Carpet is same what new ,but have a few burns from welding ,may replace!
    Got from Performance Products, $140.Toyota wanted $800+,
    less money & way more yardage for my house carpet! :cool:

    The color is now darker than I had it. Wanted closer to the dash color ,which will be re-shot also.
    Tomorrow I'll clear coat all that was shot!
    Stock radiator is same color now also! :cool:

    All the paint is Omni,as is the clear. First time around was PPG,can only get in water base now!
    Had a can of the Pewter Gray already & wanted it darker so I'm adding black & white pearl to the mix.
    The red is Radiant Red Met. with extra gold pearl added.:cool:
