[BMWCSRegistry] : Headliner and carpet material

[Art Wegweiser]

Bill,
Can't help with your head liner problem. Fortunately not one I ever 
encountered but that sounds like a job for a good professional.

In addition to the specially cut for a CS black vinyl trunk 
protective cover I described for sale earlier, I have some other 
items.

IF you are not in a hurry, I do have several partial rolls of inside 
carpet and trunk materials (not black but some is dark blue) left 
over from Ilse's rehab.  All dark but with those brownish and grey 
speckles BMW put in at various times. They varied a lot but all have 
been stored warm and dry and are in excellent condition.
I can send swathes eventually.

Also a partial roll of grey "elephant hide" for the boot inner fender 
side walls and recovering the floor boards in the boot.  And some 
black vinyl for doors and center console refurbishing.
Obviously I need to measure available dimensions when I can get to it 
and try to dig out what I originally paid several years back, but 
that may be a problem. In truth I know not what the fair market it is 
now but it was not cheap then and I bought too much of some stuff 
even though my upholstery guy did a fantastic job (on two Coupes).
And particularly as he had never seen a Coupe before. Examples of his 
work had included boats, some old Corvettes, Mustangs and Packards.
