Default Anyone know a good source for interior materials?

I'm looking for some good sources in South Florida for cushion foam and headliner material. Does anyone know a good place or places?

Thanks,

Brian

Brian:

Not in FL, but PA, but when people were talking about the "Foot Cush" shock absorbant foam pads (made out of ensolite) for CCs at $40-$60 each ... I contacted these guys and they'll sell 1" thick ensolite pads, 12"W x 24"L @ $3 each ! Might be worth the trym this home page opens up on the page to select your style of material, foam, and shape. Hope this helps!

I don't know how far you are from the big city? Cause you could just open the yellow pages and look under foam or spounge.

Get yourself some orthopedic foam in the 3-4" range; your hinie will love yah. Oh yah, it's cheap too!

Headliners: What type of material were you thinking of using?

Nylon fiber carpet with Nylon backing shouldn't be a problem. Something in the 40 oz. range would be nice. And this you can get from your local carpet retailer.

I don't disagree with RightRigger, but why pay marina prices? I just replace all the foam in my V-birth with 4" top of the line foam for under 105 bucks. (I USED 13 1/2 yards of fabric - don't know how much foam, approx 5-6 sq. yds.). The boating places I had talked with, was talking 180-270 for foam; I don't even know what type of foam they were quoting me on? But I know that I bought the best on the market for 91 plus taxes. I wouldn't imagine that my Canadian price would be that far off from your green back.
