Sorry no pictures... when I have the camera I never seem to point it up that way and I didn't take any when I had it out...

I'll have to take some because this hasn't been the first time they have been asked about... car has been tucked away, doing work on some other projects.

dabest09 PM'ed ya back
The best headliner adhesive is the 3M as mentioned.

I looked at the black leather at the fabric store but wasn't too crazy about it. Just make sure whatever you get has the backing foam with it made especially for headliners. If you have t-tops it may look good

What? I'm confused. Both of your cars have cloth headliner correct? And your ttop car has cloth interior and the hardtop has leather interior?

both have cloth headliners yes, Hardtop has leather interior T-Top Cloth Interior,

So what I should have said is it wont look good in the T-Top because its cloth interior, but maybe in the hardtop since its ebony leather interior.

I would probably agree with you on that one. I just don't know that if the whole entire roof was covered in leather if that would be overdoing it ya know?

If it matched the rest of the interior I don't see why it would look bad though. Even the doors have the leather on them...
