EASY Painted Black HEADLINER! | Mazda 3 Headliner Tutorial

The Mazda 3 platform comes with a 50/50 colored interior. Bottom half is black, while the top half is beige. To match it up, we pulled all the top half of the headliner off, and painted black the pieces easy. Super awesome mod to do if you're looking for some extra jazz!

This is such an underrated mod, yet it makes such a huge impact on the interior, especially if the car has black seats and black door panels but grey pillars and headliner from factory. Great video !

[@ColtonRichter]

It's making me thing about the next seat choice!

[@DrivingProduction]

Looks great! Good job! I was thinking of doing that to my 3 too! Nice to see someone else do it!

[@ColtonRichter]

Do it!

[@destinyhughes5625]

How well has the color held up?? Thinking of doing this to my car!

Still looks great!

[@bricegraham8256]

I wanna go the TDIB route and not only pull out all my pillars but flock them black. Now that would be extra sick. This is already pretty sick too.

[@itsBrianMadeIt]

do you have a link to that method?

[@bricegraham8256]

@@itsBrianMadeIt kzbin.info/www/bejne/jHawkKqBoJKonZI That's it right there. It's more towards the end where she starts flocking the dash. However I think there's another video where he actually explains the process but I'll find that some other time. Anyways this is the video I was referring in question.

[@namansingh1508]

Do we need to sand down those pillars for painting? My pillars have a texture on them so I’m worried if I sand with a sand paper it might kinda ruin it…. Can anyone advise please

[@ColtonRichter]

I just scuffed mine a bit, just ensure it's clean

[@melissagoeb606]

New mazda 3 owner here. 2005 hatch. Can you take the headliner out without removing the seats fully? Any help would be appreciated.

[@ColtonRichter]

It's practically impossible without damaging the headliner

[@melissagoeb606]

Ahh gotcha. Trouble I seem to be having is I have a sunroof in my hatchback.

[@andreah.7635]

@@melissagoeb606 I've seen someone do it by taking it out through the trunk . Seemed easy. I'm going to be removing it that way as well when the time comes , prevents you from removing the seats. Hope this helps. God bless you.

[@monolithlily512]

Yo so can i still take out the front gray pillars even tho it has srs airbag? Or would it set them off

[@ColtonRichter]

Yeah it's just a curtain, make sure to disconnect your battery

[@ezclapz4778]

How come I have airbags on all 4 corner panels is there a way I can by pass the back panels behind the seats?? I don’t want that thing blowing up in my face when yanking off the panels

[@ColtonRichter]

All has to come out unfortunately

[@ezclapz4778]

@@ColtonRichter what’s the best way to disconnect the air bags??

[@ColtonRichter]

They'll just be plugged in I assume, best to unplug your battery

[@ezclapz4778]

@@ColtonRichterdid u have airbags or no?? I’m just so nervous of them popping in my face 😂

No, but as long as your battery is pulled they SHOULDN'T (dont take my word for it)

[@ignignxkt]

If you see this, how does the headliner attach to the roof? Is it just clips or is there adhesive or something that needs to be added? Thanks, looks great!

[@ColtonRichter]

I recall it being held in by things like the handles, a few pins, and lights

[@firstlast7152]

You know, if it wasn't for your videos I'd probably fuck around with my car a LOT less than I have. You're costing me money, bro! All in good fun though.

[@ColtonRichter]

Haha, all the fun ✌🏻

[@joshymcdaniel9233]

I don’t like the 2 tone black bottom tan too in my 2016 m3 but lighter color does make it feel more open dark headliner makes it feel smaller idk that’s imo Great job though headliners are a pita

[@Cceptus]

Great video. I'm thinking about doing this to my car. Did you end up using the clear coat on these after 3 coats of the black?

[@ColtonRichter]

I used matte clearcoat on the trims!

[@Cceptus]

@@ColtonRichter my man, thanks for getting back. Totally going to do this to my 2013. Hope you're doing well.

Did this hold up? If you scratch it will the paint come off?

[@ColtonRichter]

Yes, paint sticks nice.

[@blackriderph4340]

the chemicals in the paint didnt damage the glue and foam beneath?

[@ColtonRichter]

Didn't look like it no

[@jayychuy]

Thanks! Been searching for a detailed video and this one beats them all ☝🏼

[@JP-vh6ub]

Yo so after doing this is the roof really crusty feeling

[@ColtonRichter]

It is, either due to heavy spray. I'm not sure if you'd get different results if you went super light spray. Either way, I don't ever touch my roof so wasn't a big deal for me :)

[@rydawg2006]

You should have painted the handles

[@ColtonRichter]

I will at some point, the spring makes it a bit of a pain

[@jonathanpratt5021]

Love this 👍 how many cans of spray did it take complete the full car ?

[@ColtonRichter]

I think around 5-6

[@samirhilal192]

About time

[@alaskangurilla3497]

Paint brush on that seat belt piece

[@FFGamer077]

This is kind of making me want to do mine maybe next year if I get all the other stuff taken cared of after it getting hit, twice, while parked.....but yea this looks great dude. As for the Seat Belts, if you reaaaaally wanted to I would just hand paint them honestly to the best of your ability. It be difficult but doable imo. The Handles idk I think it looks alright so you can see them if passenger's need them etc but they look good in black also.

[@ColtonRichter]

The handles are doable, but to hold the spring back to paint the latches are the reason why I didn't do them. Will do in the future!
