Just got the parts in. You are correct, the items are flimsy but I think with some stronger support (fiberglass) they should be okay. Cost seems a little high too for what you get. No instructions for the headliner but I've interior work before so its not hard to figure it out. The headliner will get black suede and the overhead console will get painted after some glass is layed. Will post pictures when its complete.

We weren't impressed by the fit or strength . Customer brought one when he dropped off car.I had to spend 4 hrs making stronger and fit better.Maybe it was just a bad one.I ended up making our own.Just make sure you do a fit before covering anything

Okay, finally got the headliner with overhead console installed. Took some work:

- added fiberglass on the inside of console to add some stronger support.
- sanded the ABS texture on the outside of the consolde.
- added milkshake to the outside of the consolde to smooth it out.
- painted and added air bursh details to the overhead console.
- then applied black swede to the actual headliner.

Wow!!! That looks really nice to bad you have to do all that work but if it was perfect to start with everyone would have one. Sounds like its a good start for someone who does not have all the fiberglass moulding experience as some guys but can go through it and strengthing it and smooth it out. Anyways that looks great.
