Black headliner
Does anyone feel the no charge black headliner makes the interior feel smaller and much darker.?
I have searched on line and can seem to find any good pics. Is it like a leather or velvet? If you have it do you like it?

I have nougat brown interior with a cback headliner , my friend has the same with a gray headliner. Maybe the black seems a bit smaller, but the interior looks great. My friend likes his but has admitted that if he had had the choice he would have gotten the black. It is not leather like, more of a fabric matte. Let me know if you want a picture and I can post later today.

I also have a Nougat Brown interior with the black headliner. It is fabric, same as the light interior. My old A4 had the light interior. I like the black MUCH better:
jc
- Will not show dirt like the light headliner - especially around the sun visors
- It does make the interior feel a little closer, but I actually like that, especially since the A6 interior is as large as it is. It does not feel small at all.
- It looks "better integrated" to me, especially where the A-pillars meet the dash. It is essentially the same color as the dash (really more of a dark slate, not pure black).
- An unexpected benefit for me was when driving on bright days I do not squint at all. With my A4, even with the sun visor down, I would sometimes find myself squinting on bright days - very tiring if you are on a long drive.

This one is a little overexposed... its actually darker looking than this, but again you can see how the headliner, a-pillar, and dash all tie together nicely.

Im going to wash/detail the car this morning, if I can get a chance, and find the right light Ill may try to take some additional pictures. I guess Im not the best photographer, but taking pictures of car interiors on a sunny day challenge my skills a bit.

This is not a perfect picture, but it will give you the idea... Note the similarity between the headliner and dash color.

The black headliner is fantastic--I refused to even consider cars that didn't have it. The A6 is such a big car that it doesn't feel small with the black headliner, just sporty. Same material as the standard headliner but black.
