Headliner sagging ... options

What's the best option handling this issue? I was told, suede is not easy to put on and that the glue could leak through?
Where do I buy the material and what's the closest color code to the OEM finish?
Thanks

the only good fix is like I did replace the headliner---others will spry glue into headliner after it looks like an iranian taxie

How did you replace it and what kinda fabric did you use? Did you also replace the dome light, visors and the A-pillars?

Take the car to a reputable upholstery shop. They can match the fabric. Unless you have experience, it is easy to screw it up. $500 for the headliner. $500 if you need the sunroof panel done (they have to remove the sunroof, so lots of labor).

You can also get good material from yourautotrim.com and attempt to do it yourself. I'm going to redo mine in charcoal foam backed alcantara.
