Thank you all for the help. Allow me to share a little of my own wisdom. In looking for the correct glue for my headliner I contacted 3M directly. The perfect glue for that application is: 3M Spray 80 . This is a contact type adhesive that resists the migration of plasticizers that are in vinyl. If you do not use an 'anti plasticizing' glue then the vinyl will attack regular glues and cause the bond to fail. Lastly, this glue produces a flexible bond that is good for -40 to +200 degrees. It is THE glue to use with automotive vinyls. I hope this information was of use to someone. |

You guys are great! You always seem to know whats falling apart on my car, before I even tell you about it. I'll check out these sources for 308 GTS headliner material.
Thanks! |

You might also try http://www.reoriginals.com/
They have a catalog specific to Ferrari cars, and they also sent me a packet of samples of all the materials specific to my make and model.
I know of one fellow F-Chatter who purchased most of the materials from ReOriginals, and then had them installed by a prof. upholsterer near Atlanta, GA. His interior looked and smelled like brand new when all was said and done, as he described it.

I am wondering where to find material to re-do the headliner in my 77 GTB. It has to match exact to what I have now.
If you have bought this material and have experience with the vinyl that is found on GTB's please let me know where you found it and what I can expect to pay. |
