Perhaps a half reasonable carefully remobed item from a breaker might surfice? I know a number of people have had the original refitted, or totally retrimmed, but I am not sure about a new direct replacement, Have you tried Renault themselves pr

or searching the forum for headlining posts there maybe a number of leads to be had?

Mr Dell any headlining material from Deippe?

When I had mine re-done, the trimmer I used (who was very good and very reasonable, BTW) mentioned that Renault would take over factories to have the cloth for the headlining and seats made for them. What this means is that you can't get the 'proper' fabric now, unless you take Simon's advice and find a breaker or something.

However, it seems that there is such a wide variety of fabrics used by Alpine that you might find it difficult to find a matching donor car.

After thinking about a close-match tweed, I went for alcantara and it looks great.

If it is vital for you, you may be able to get someone to print the right pattern onto the background colour, but it won't be cheap. A company that does building wraps or posters should be able to do it for you, but you'll need a background material about the right colour and texture.

The normal headlining materials are the price of very expensive carpet so you might want to sit down before asking.

I took mine to Austin's Trim and they had a bunch of close matches for the tweed and he was up for re-using the old fabric or custom-finishing anything. As I say, I went for the slightly more pricey alcantara but he did the whole lot for something like £130 including new foam and fitting etc.

If you can I'd go with one from a breaker, then that must be your best option.

Mine fell down, so I gave it a good clean (as some of the orange foam messed up the top side of the fabric) bought some new 5mm blue foam and stuck it back with a decent fabric glue.
If I say so myself, it looks as good as new

Nothing left new.

If the material is in good condiiton just spray glue to new foam and re-fit.

Otherwise any decent trimmer should have a good range of suitable fabrics.

I have a roll of foam backed alacantara type material here. Will do my A610 and probably another 1 or 2 cars.
