Top job, mate - where did you get the material? What glue did you use?

Well, the material and glue came from the same place - the trimmer's that did it Laughing

, Don't know what it is called but sure does the job brilliantly.

Easy life

I'm still in the middle of doing mine myself ... two years on Embarassed

I got part way there with the backing foam and then it snapped in half. I just need to join it up again and cover with the material I have in mind. Initially, it was going to be crushed velvet, but I have my eye on some really fluffy material that will look so awful it might be cool Cool

Here's my C-pillars in crushed velvet ... and the parcel shelf in black leatherette.

The crushed velvet looks good and so does the leatherette - good work!
