Correct term is *headlining*. Any reputable *motor trimmer* is much less likely to rip you off if you sound like you know what you're talking about. :) Shouldn't cost an arm or a leg... $100 or so ought get you a very professional looking job. Furthermore, your hands will stay clean and you won't end up with a stiff neck. -- John H
