Re-wrapping headliner on 2003 G55

Here are some before and after pics of the headliner work I'm having done. I should have some shots of the completed job by tonight too.

Here are some after shots of the plastic bits painted and the headliner re-done in alcantara before reinstalling.

Done!! Still deciding whether or not to re-do the sun visors and handles above the windows. Here are a couple of quick shots. I can take better ones if anyone wants to see.

It cost about USD$580 to have it re-lined. Then for repainting the bits and removing and re-installing the headliner was another USD$200.

Nice job, how did it hold up through the years?
Also where did you have it done?

I'm in the Philippines so I had the headliner done by someone here who does work on interiors of private planes/choppers, custom vans, etc. It's holding up perfectly to the hot and humid Philippine air. It's going on a little more than 4 years and it still looks and feels like new.

Need help. I need a procedure to remove headliner in 2003 G55

Any help would be great. Mine is sagging and needs replacement. Cost is huge for someone to remove. Would like to do it myself.
