Default Anyone make a hardtop headliner?

Hey guys I have a 94 Z28 and the headliner is sagging badly, a friend of mine said he thinks someone makes/sells a fiberglass one, does anyone know if this is true and where I could purchase one, thanks.

I don't know of anyone that produces them in fiberglass. Headliner is part of my ongoing interior overhaul and there are a lot of headliners available, but they are ABS plastic and they not cheap.

I don't think any sponsors sell them, so here is a link.

whats wrong with it? is the actual fiberboard broken or is the covering just falling apart? if the covering is falling apart...you can recover it incredibly easy. about 15 dollars worth of material lol

I got a t-top one through stock interior, wasn't very happy with fit at first until I took out the heat gun and worked it more. I opted to cover it myself and glad I did since I had to reshap it. Had it on for about 3 weeks and from it getting hot inside from the sun the ABS is looking like it's warping. I will be adding another one of those black barbed push in fasteners in the front were it started saggin a little. Other then that it looks way better then my 16 year old factory headliner, if ordered I would cover it yourself just in case you have to do some cutting or heating to make it fit better.
