Okay so I failed miserably at repairing my headliner. And thoughts or opinions on just bed lining this piece of fiberglass???? No more risk of sagging!!!!!

You can almost use any year fiberboard but the real issue will be your over head speakers

I posted a thread like this a long time ago when i was a newer member. Just take their advice. replace it. its going to end up being way easier in the end and well worth it.

Ripped the hell outta mine, sanded her down, primed and painted black. Looks pretty rugged to me. Might make changes once it gets warmer.




2 coats of primer





1 coat of black paint!

You can paint it! Takes some prep work like sanding off the glue, priming with the correct paint and some drive time without a headliner. End result is not too bad!
