Thanks!

Hi Kev,

Cleaning old foam off was easy. Just used a stiff brush and it came straight off in a few minutes. Keep the vacum cleaner handy (and dont use the good one from in the house cause the red foam is really sticky).
I used acrylic primer from supercheap, and stoneguard spray paint.
Here a link when ive got more details ...

Thanks for the info, Jack. Much appreciated! I reckon I'll go down that route myself. Seems like a lot less faffing about, and for a pretty good end result, too. The pictures make it look like a worthwhile job.
I'm reckoning on a couple of hours to remove the roof liner, would that be about right?
My D2 is in Bonatti Grey, so I'm thing about going away from the lighter grey roof colour and opting for something darker, instead. That should be a nice contrast.

Cheers Jack!

Took me about 2 hours to take it out - but im slow
Did it very carefully.
Highly recommend you get one of those trim remover tool kits from supercheap or similar - like these ...
SCA Door Trim Remover Set - 5 Piece - Supercheap Auto Australia

Made the job so much easier.
Also you need a helper to do the final bit and take the card out, as well as reinstall it so it dosent bend. My wife helped me for about 5 mins each time.

Just take your time and dont force anything, it all comes apart without breaking if your careful and use the tools.

I painted it in the afternoon, and reinstalled it the next morning.

Its well worth the effort - mine looks great and i never have to do it again
