Default Louis Vuitton or Gucci Headliner

Does anyone know where I can get authentic or generic Gucci/Louis Vuitton fabric for fairly cheap to wrap my headliner in? At first I thought it sounded kind of ghetto until I saw my buddy's MKIII GTI with his done.

I thought it looks really clean and my headliner is currently tacked up so I need it done anyway. My seats will eventually be re-wrapped in tan leather so something to match would be great.

Thanks

where ever your local metropolian fabric district is. I know we have a Fabric district down here in LA. I thought to do a shift boot and ebrake boot in a designer pattern or something just for kicks. I would say Gucci. haha.

Yeah I thought about doing a shift boot to match as well. I checked eBay and stuff... nothing. And yes ha Gucci. Only reason I wanna do Louis Vuitton is because everyone does Gucci!

Meh, I may wait a while anyway. I'll prolly just pull down the sh*tty looking headliner and roll metal for a while, as well as the pillars. It'll look better than it does currently.

Besides, I just blew all my money on other stuff! I have an eBay header coming, high-flow cat, Dinan chip and I just got my head and intake back from the machine shop - they were port matched and polished.

Ebay headers have been proven to lose hp. Supersprint headers are the only ones proven to make hp on the M44. Stock headers are very good.

Aftermarket cats will fail and trigger a check engine light. Yeah, everybody has Gucci headliners these days. Heck there's prolly atleast 10 people on this forum alone

Plastic 1 piece ebay chrome headlights and a Louis Vuitton interior, I like where this is going.

i don't think there is such a thing as 'authentic' gucci/lv fabric unless you contact them directly or buy a lot of their stuff and piece it together...
i mean, why would these brands sell their prints just so people can counterfeit their products even easier....

what i'm saying is... when you see aftermarket branded interiors, chances are, 999/1000, they are knock offs....

Ding ding ding. LV is not going to sell their fabric directly to you or to a retailer that will be distributing it. You're going to have to go with a knock off print.
