I used vinyl headliner in carbon fiber texture. From J.C.Whitney.
Try a local fabric store for headliner material.

I used carpet glue, only because carpet is my profession. A better choice would be spray-on headliner glue. Not just regular spray adhesive, it should be specifically for headliners.

I also covered a door panel to see what it would look like.

Got any tricks to gettin the fabric to lay down so smooth around the curved edges? I tried to wrap a old dash in a Chevy once and had it all wrinkled

How exactly can you remove the roof, is there just some screws you need to undo or what?
