i checked with a local material shop about this, they normally sstock it, but didnt have any in. prices were reasonable - about £8 per meter and was 1.5m wide, so could do headlining.

CW off topic!? never! I was planning to get luminous yellow alcantara centres, with woolen outers. know any suppliers of good wool?! :-P

 

nah, was for the 16v. it had leather, but i was thinking about doing a sub install in alcantara as acoustic cloth is stupidly expensive. in the end i shelled out £20 for a roll of AC.

A decent trade supplier of acoustic cloth i would be interested in.

Thats very very cheap

 

Alcantara is normally around the £60+ matk per sqm

there are also materials which are simular but a fraction of the cost

There is a place at Bridge of Weir that supplies leather for all quality car interiors,I think they do Alcantara too.Certainly worth a try as they are quite close for you Joe.
