VW Transporter Black Suede Roof Lining Retrofit
There’s something about a black suede roof lining that instantly levels up the feel of a van’s interior—and this VW Transporter was no exception. The cab was treated to a full black suede rooflining upgrade, complete with A-pillars wrapped to match. The result? A premium look and feel that completely transforms the cabin space. 🛠️🚐
Ever sat inside your van and thought, “This could feel more refined”? That’s exactly what the owner of this Transporter thought—and they weren’t wrong. Our team completed the full black suede rooflining conversion as part of a larger project, and the finish delivered exactly the kind of visual and acoustic upgrade they were after.
Full Interior Trim Enhancement
This wasn’t just a standalone job—it was part of a bigger interior transformation. Alongside the VW Transporter black suede rooflining, we:
- ⚫ Fully wrapped both A-pillars in matching black suede
- ⚫ Painted and installed tweeter grilles in satin black
- ⚫ Refinished the central overhead console in matt black
- ⚫ Applied comprehensive soundproofing and insulation throughout the cab
The combination of these upgrades gave the van a much more refined, quieter, and cohesive look. Whether you’re using your Transporter as a daily driver, camper, or mobile workspace, this kind of interior attention-to-detail makes a huge difference.
Why Soundproofing Matters
Factory vans rarely come with enough insulation to keep road and wind noise at bay—especially in the cab area. By layering in high-grade soundproofing materials, we cut down on cabin echo and exterior noise. The result? A more comfortable drive and a cabin that feels more luxury saloon than commercial van.
Custom Details, Factory Feel
We used OEM-quality suede material and matched all trim components to blend perfectly. The tweeter grilles and overhead console were prepped and painted in a durable matt black finish, ensuring long-lasting wear that won’t chip or fade. Everything was refitted with care, and the overall finish feels like something VW should’ve offered from the factory.
Expert Work, Start to Finish
Jobs like this take time—not just for the wrapping and refinishing, but for the careful removal and reinstallation of interior components. From safely removing airbags and trims to routing wiring behind OEM panels, attention to detail is key. We also ran a full diagnostic scan before and after installation to ensure no fault codes were stored from airbag or trim disassembly. It’s the kind of precision that sets proper vag retrofits apart.
