Default anybody have interior issues?

anybody experiencing headliner rips or tears?

my sun visors are starting to tear on the tops, and on my headliner right around the edge where the t top sits is starting to wear down... anybody else experiencing this? any ideas that i could do? how hard is it to re-fabric that part, and maybe even put some sort of design in it, maybe like the pontiac symbol right in between the t tops?
i think most of the wear is due to the previous owner taking the shades on and off, it touches the headliner fabric and could probably cause those tears and what not.

yearone i think it is sells abs plastic replacements, not sure how that would look though... seems kinda weird.

There was a cut in my headliner but was there when I bought it new. You could only see it with the T tops out. It finally annoyed me enough after a year I took it to the dealer and had it replaced under warranty.

haha dang... should be nice when its all new though, your car is a bit older though, so you have reason to replace all that stuff...

my interior is fine except my headliner, and sunvisors, wich really bugs the hell out of me. the seats are perfect, because the previous owner had them custom made leather/suede with embroidered headrests, i thought it came like that from the factory but everybody tells me otherwise.
