        Spray it onto a surface and then use like a bonding spreader or something

          Wouldn't contact cement or something of that nature make more sense then?

                    Worked on cleaning the headliner, sunroof motor cover, and sun roof shuttle last night so I can drop them off at the upholsterer. 

                    Removing the old foam and adhesive from the sunroof shuttle was an absolute nightmare and I still need to clean it with soap and water to be finished

                      i vote for the spray stuff.

                      take a big sheet of cardboard, and cut a hole the size of the area you want to spray. judging based on the photo you posted, something like this would suffice:

                          That's a nice piece. If only the m42 style fill end didn't interfere with my euro m3 radiator cover=/

                            I picked up the headliner bits and drivers seat from the upholsterer yesterday. He did a phenomenal job. Sorry for the potato pictures, I got home late and my phones white balance is garbage lol.

                            I will attempt to install the headliner today if someone is home to give me a hand. 

                            Other than that I finally got a set of rear bumper shocks and a passenger window. The window should be going in today and I am just cleaning up the bumper shocks before installing them. 

                            I've also been working on a little side project for the car that I want to keep under wraps until it is completed. It should be pretty neat once done

                              Looks very nice, I will need to do my headliner at some point.  It isn't sagging but is dirty grey and has some burn holes from a PO's cigarettes...  Wish they would have just been vaping lol.

                                lol This headliner was sagging to the point where I had removed it before taking the car off the road years ago. I redid the headliner in my coupe and did not have any fun doing it. I wanted to save myself the headache and just have it done this time=)

                                  Accomplished a handful of things this weekend. 

                                  Picked up some parts:
                                  20170126151448zpsinoa852l.jpg

                                  Friday I got the headliner trimmed and installed:
                                  20170127161422zpsp2wgt1ij.jpg
                                  20170128132627zpsomfwm5je.jpg

                                  Saturday I finished getting it fitting correctly and I installed a new gas cap hanger and stop buffer on my gas door:
                                  20170128132543zpsv05wdxvz.jpg
                                  20170128133004zpsniswwdwv.jpg

                                  I then glued down the separating vinyl on the sunroof and threw on the new side covers:

                                  20170128143252zpsdsf5hipt.jpg

                                  Once dried it holds strong now:

                                  20170129131524zpsu5cnct8d.jpg

                                  I also finished cleaning my sunroof tracks and threw in the new fabric shuttle rails:
                                  20170127142944zpsvjjbnlnf.jpg

                                  20170128141309zps2jezlfqk.jpg

                                  Yesterday I installed my new to me passenger window, replaced the sliders on the drivers window that I neglected when I installed it, and installed the fabric shuttle:
                                  20170129151553zpsr2j4rgdj.jpg
                                  20170129152230zpshpdzd8uw.jpg

                                  I would have put in the sunroof as well but I couldn't find the white lithium grease to lubricate the tracks first. I will pick some up today and get that done

                                          Got a few things done over the past few days.

                                          I bent the new brake line running to the rear to match the original:

                                          I threw in my coupe battery cable to help with the relocation to the hatch. I couldn't get any good pictures of this but imagine a red cable running under the floor board wire covers, over the back seat, and into the hatch.

                                          I brought a new to me set of bumper shocks back to life and installed them with my refreshed bumper support:

                                          I managed to get my sunroof in as well but I need to play with it more to get the front to sit flush with the roof. For some reason I am having issues with that. The rear sits nice and flush which really confuses me.
