Just finished these for the other post. The headliner, visors and sunshade were recovered in a padded headliner material that look like Black Suede, the material is also available in Lt Grey, Dark Grey and Tan
Since the sunshade is reversable, I added Carbon Fibre Vinyl to the back side. This way you have a choice of which way you want to show the sunshade
The visor up
The visor down
The headliner kit consists of material, glue, and instructions. I will need your sunvisor cores to recover. I also have available the stock padded headliner colors.
Any questions, let me know Russ

I've already purchased the cloth for mine and had my visors re-covered, but wish I hadn't. I REALLY like the look of that Suede! Post more pics when you have a chance, would love to see the tan version....
Instead of suede, can you use a more stock-looking cloth? I like the suede, but it'll stick out when a third of my interior is carpet, third is cloth, and a third is suede.
jgeis - you have PM RT - I have access to the stock headliner colors and I also have a Grey and Tan Velour material in stock. It's very close to the factory cloth used in the Fiero's and it's also the material I use in the seat covers I make. Russ
Your work looks excellent. I have seen many great looking Fiero's that had the original trashy looking Visors. For $50.00 this is very doable.Good luck with your endeavor.
Josef, Thanks for the kind words. I just realized that I didn't post the price for the visors with pockets. It's an extra $5.00 per visor for those. I apologize for the confusion, but it's extra labor and material to produce them. And again the price is using your cores. Question, suggestions? Thanks for your interest Russ

There were a few different Tan's in the stock materials or are you refering to the Suede? You can do them yourself if you have an industrial sewing machine for the one's with the pockets and possibly you may be able to do the one's without pockets with a home machine. Not sure though, never tried it on a home machine. I do all my upholstery on an industrial/commercial sewing machine Hope that answers your question. Thanks for your interest Russ
Bump... Some of the best I have seen I especially liked the pocketed visors. How much for a full set, Headliner and pocketed visors in the charcoal grey suede material? $105.00?

This went out yesterday to PA. It is going in a INDY where Grey and Red are the colors, customer wanted something different, so I did the Stock OEM Grey headliner material with Red edging on one side
And since the shade is actually reversable, I did Red Naughahyde with grey edging on the other side
