Found a good vinyl headliner material.
I posted a similar post over on the 67-72chevytrucks website but I wanted to post here too just for the GMC nuts.
So, I have the original headliner inserts for my suburban but they are not in any shape to be reused. So I contacted SMS fabrics and they said they had it but wanted too much money in opinion. I am not completely worried about factory correct (although I will be buying my OG seat material from them), but as far as the headliner is concerned I just want something that looks good. So on my way home from work, I stopped by a local little fabric store. While digging through the vinyl bolts, I found a thicker type vinyl that had an awesome vintage design to it. Unfortunately it was pink, but I bought 3 yards anyways. I came home and starting installing it with an 1/8" foam backer. Then I prepped the new inserts with vinyl paint prep and sprayed them the same color as the rest of the interior. Let me know what you guys think, I think it looks amazing and the casual observer will think it's perfectly factory.

Re: Found a good vinyl headliner material.
It may not be all original, but it looks great to me. The lines running perpendicular to the cross beams look 60's with a modern vibe.
