You may find it cheaper somewhere else but hopefully this is a good start.

The BEST fabric to use is the foam backed material that you can buy on eBay and some fabric stores. You can use pretty much any kind of material (even seen people use flags) but if you really want the best, factory look, go for the foam backed. I paid (maybe too much) $23-5 a yard on eBay for mine. Cost more but looks 10x better.

Here's mine... U can use pretty much any material u like. Just use common sense. Pretty much, the thinner and lighter the better. Like if u use heavy denim it might not stay up. Gravity is a beeotch. If u want it to look like stock u can buy the foam backed "headliner material" at most fabric stores (Hancock Fabrics, where i got my material, had it for like 13 bux a yard). Also they sometimes even have it @ like Advance Auto or AutoZone. I just wanted sumthin diff. If i had it to do over tho, I'd probly use the "headliner material". U wanna Use "Permatex Headliner and Carpet Glue" (or 3M if ya got extra money) Its bout 12 bux a can at Advance Auto or Autozone. BRIGHT Orange can with a Blue lid! U need AT LEAST 2 cans! Good Luck! Post Pics!!! O, and 3 yards of material.
