Headliner Fabric from Veteranco

[karter16]

Are there any problems using the BM134 with the foam backing on the pillars? Just curious why folks aren't doing this or is it just that it's not BMW proper?

I haven't tried it but would speculate it would cause fitment issues with the A pillar inserts, the C pillar reading lights, etc. the BM-134 is reasonably thick and so wouldn't squish down well where another part overlaps it would be my thinking. Where parts on the headliner itself overlap the headliner is sufficiently recessed to account for the thickness of the foam.

Just dont. Before George Hill helped me out with the proper fabric, a previous shop had used some off-the-shelf black padded fabric on the pillars and it just looked puffy and cheap. You want these to be wrapped thinly.

With foam it would be too thick and wont sit right on the pillars

Agreed, BM134 is too thick for the pillars, even the non foam backed 3109 is too thick for the A-pillar and screw cover parts.
