Welcome to the IHoP
center, left, right, you name it. I used track 12 on the iasca cd to center my tweets and mids separately, then I go and play a different song on the disk and the center vocal keeps moving around from song to song. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> sure all the speakers are in phase?

Headliner Droops no more
motorola e815 actually one of the nicer camera phones i've seen. the liner is actual headliner material, it has a 1/8" foam backing on it which makes it nearly impossible to wrinkle. edit: reduced the size on the pics a little so they can be viewed easier

Headliner Droops no more
the beginning....86 fiero that i'm trying to fix up, just finished the headliner today. Process...remove the whole interior, because i'm going to fix anything that needs it, headliner came out and made the voyage to bburg with me. I started by removing the old headliner and the staples that someone else had used. I then brushed a ton of resin on the backside of the liner (not the front where the fabric goes so i could avoid messing up the contours). This strengthened the old thing a LOT and i ended up using about 1/2 of a (quart?) of resin. Then i layed two layers of fiberglass mat over the spots where the visors hold the headliner up since they had pulled away from the rest of the headliner. Two layers is more than enough for me to hold the whole headliner up with just the one corner, and i was too lazy to put any more layers on. Sorry about the crappy pics, but the camera phone is all i have, the last two really don't show the contours of the headliner but given that it's black you can't really see them in person either. Then after screwing up the first layer of fabric(faux suede, ivory in color) I bought actual headliner material from jo-ann fabric (cost....$20) The adhesive that i bought there is working great, but don't remember the name off hand (price was $7 for a small can, enough to do the small fiero headliner). spray both sides following the direction on the can, work well into the corners flip, cut away the corners and tuck them in, finished product turned out great IMO, much stronger and looks better, now i just have to make some more of the interior black to match it (the original plan anyway)

Welcome to the IHoP
i'm thinking they had the door open and something in the fender, cause the dent was on that side of the door, but the fender was untouched. bought headliner stuff from jo-ann fabric, just finished cover the one side, going to let it set for a little while then cut off the excess and tuck it behind (and glue) don't worry, i'll try to snap some pics

Welcome to the IHoP
going out to wal-mart to try to find some fabric that i can cover the headliner with, if i don't succeed this time i'm just going to cover it with resin, bondo/sand and do a black pearl job on it i hate damn wrinkles

Welcome to the IHoP
they hit it with something hard enough to dent the inside brace on the door, but carefully enough to not even give the FG a stress crack

Welcome to the IHoP
http://s2.photobucket.com/albums/y50/vladd...-16-06_1228.jpg thats my nephew that looks exactly like i did at that age. that was also before working on the fiero, now its door is black and has a wave in it, but no huge dent like that one. (how do you dent fiberglass? bend the whole damn door, i have no idea how they managed it)

Welcome to the IHoP
headliner is looking good, nearly dry, considering doing the reverse side, but hate to fudge up the contours and have to sand
-
Welcome to the IHoP
2 layers of fiberglass mat over the holes in the headliner, went down well, i'll take some crappy pics, i mixed it strong so its probably already dry, need to set it int he sun fire?
