Default Roof lining re spray

Hey guys


I have a lining out of the bonus that's a horrible cream and will look odd with rst interior and black dash going into it

Has anyone had success painting it?

I also thought about getting fabric, trimming to fit the existing one and sticking it on

Money not here at the moment to get new one done but I will in the longer term

Cheers

Hi I don't know how good it will be but halfords used to do a vinyl paint in dark grey and the colour match was really good for plastics inside a series 1. Not sure if it will work on roof lining though.. Might flake.
