Scissors
Nice piece of chalk or marker or pencil or whatever
Nice industrial sewing machine( not anything from walmart )

Headliner

Some of your basic tools
and wire brush to tear off the old foam
An air compressor would be nice
Glue

Carpet

Basic tools use whatever needed to remove seats and other trim panels that may be in the way

Fiberglass look

Usually some good filler primer and shit load of sanding
More filler

Experience. Practice on some old junk yard parts first. Theres alot more to interior than just covering and wrapping. If you dont know what your doing, youll be heading for disaster. Just speaking from experience.

if your going to change the interior color make sure u clean it completely with alcohol. then wash the alcohol off. if there's ANY clear coat on any area that you want to paint it must come off. then paint it. evenly. works great. but i paint anything that u rest ur arm or touch very often. the paint will come off.

I DID THE TRIM PARTS ALL AROUND THE DOORS AND THE UNDER DASH (GLOVEBOX, AND UNDER STERRING WHEEL) ALSO DID MY ARM REST AND MY SPEAKERBOX!! I USED BLACK SEUDE MATERIAL THAT I BOUGHT FROM JOANNS FABRIC. I JUST CUT THE SEUDE AND SPRAYED THE PEICES WITH 3M BRAND ADHESIVE! LET THE ADHESIVE TACK UP WHICH MEANS AFTER SPRAYING LET IT SIT FOR ABOUT A MIN. THEN JUST LAY IT ON TOP AND SPREAD IT ON!
