I need the headliner in my car re-done by a pro.

TIA

Try Scott's Auto Trim on 15th Street:

3118 E 15th St
Tulsa, OK 74104-5206
(918) 744-0577‎

Red Arrow

Seems reasonable but I've never seen "I need....... done by an amateur.".

I talked to Auto Upholstery over on Mingo.  He might have heard me incorrectly, but my pieces were all ready OUT of the car and just need to be re-covered.  A and C pillar, headliner, and sunroof and got a quote of $525  :o :o :o For that price I could have bought all brand new pieces.

Soo... off to JoAnns and Autozone for fabric and adhesive.  $60 and 12 hours later I'm ready to put my trim pieces back into my car. :)

Figure they would be a bit faster than you.  8 hours at $60/hr = $480 for labor.  Add your $60 for parts and get $540.  Probably not too far off but I would also opt for trying it myself.  $60/hr would be the burdened shop rate, not what the mechanic gets.  Try the labor rate at a car dealership lately?

Old and busted:


New Hotness:




Final bill was $60 for fabric/glue and ~16 or so hours of my time.

Now if I had only done it over a year ago when the headliner first started to sag  >:(
