Default Headliner Q.

So i've got a drooping headliner in my Camaro and i've decided to just replace the cloth. I've got a buddy that has don it before. Wheres the best place to get it and how do i know what the exact color is? Do i need to do a vin search or anything crazy or is it pretty straight forward? My car is a black 1994 camaro coupe without T-tops.

Slightly off topic, but what can one expect to pay to have something like that done? Or is it fairly straightforward to replace it?

Keep in mind your not limited to just headliner material, you can find nice material in a fabric store to recover it with ( I got a couple of odd looks). Tons of possibilities.
To make recovering easiest, try to get fabric that stretches in 2 directions. I used microsuede and it looks better than stock in my opinion. You can cut and glue foam under the fabric in a flame pattern, chevy emblem, whatever. You can even ghost a similar logo or insignia on the fabric using a decal, stencil and a slightly different shade of fabric paint. Just trying to give you some ideas.
