Sunroof Headliner too bright

My new 2020 GLC 300 SUV has the porcelain headliner. Driving it home yesterday after pickup my wife commented on how bright it was even with headliner closed.

Is my best solution tinting sunroof, or using black headliner. Material is very thin.

When I was in the market for a 2019, I saw the same issue. The black headliner makes it marginally better, but it costs around $2500 to replace as the front mirror unit, grab handles, and headliner, sunshade all need to be replaced. It won't justify the cost. The tint might be the best option.
