No mate sorry......... i glued small sections at a time but it is one piece not lots of pieces! reading what i wrote didnt make sense!

If you glued a large section it was setting and had creases in so doing little sections allows you time to stretch the material where you need it and brush out any creases!

Spraying is straight forward, just make sure you get a very clean and smooth surface before applying any paint!

As for re-trimming........... I have used a spray adhesive small, and applyed small sections at a time, make sure the material can be stretched slightly as this helps fit around the curves of the door cards:

Heres mine: Trimmed in Black Alcantara and sprayed with BMW titanium silver



Took me a while to do but get alot of satisfaction out of seeing it when its complete, also done interior plastics and gonna tackle the headlining next!

Im thinking of doing some interior mods to my 1.4 16v smoke grey corsa

i want to mod the doors first...

1) spray the boring plastic blue
2) cover the doors fabric in sliver

ive got a basic idea of how to do this, but can anyone give me some "previous experience" advice.

Cheers

also any ideas about the seats? :D
