lol thanks for the comments, im not too sure how much i like it but not much i can do about it now, i liked it in my camaro but still getting used to the truck feeling smaller. gf thinks its feminine, but we'll see once i put up the diamond plate CB console. and of course she wants hers done now too with leopard print ****, i cant do anything to my truck without her wanting it done to her eclipse.
got the shifter from a flea market, looks like autozone junk (its a shifter for an automatic, pull the trigger to shift) but i painted the grips with bedliner paint (they were woodgrain but it didnt match the truck)
yea it was called the woolly mammoth i think it was a 77 vega wagon with all black **** on the outside, that thing was insanely fast
i used rustoleum auto primer i had left from the rollbar which is probably the reason it didnt stick lol

Ive been wanting to do my headliner but unsure of what exactly to use. Maybe a greyish twead, or suede. I only want to do it once.
Yep, the primers the reason it didnt stick. Funny though, I did use Tremclad (Cdn version of Rustoleum) on the mounts for my race buckets (w/lots of clear coats ontop) as well as dash trim, gauge bezel & heat/ac vent vanes. Used the proper factory paint on the overhead, airbag control, pwr control trim, door pulls, door handles(ext) & ss mirrors. The tremclad looks good but the factory paint looks excellant in comparison.

Well, I don't think it really matches well with the whole "trucks are tough" thing.
You have;
Roll bar,
vinyl flooring,
pistol grip,
multiple ram stickers,
and then a **** headliner?
Hey, if you like it, that's all that matters. Some may think my truck looks bad with the fender flares, but I don't care because i like em.

tbh im not totally happy with it, i was torn between that and a black suede, and i went with the **** because it looked good in my camaro, but i have 5 burn/blisters on my fingers from the glue gun, and im not interested in messing with it again, it grows on you.
regaurdless technically the truck is my moms, insurance wanted $4000 a year for liability for me so i transfered it all to my moms name and insurance and just pay her $600 a year til i lose some points on my license. so if i ever get pulled over the **** headliner and gratefuldead bear might help perseuded someone into believe that that truck belongs to my mother lol.
