The headliner in my 911SE looks pretty bad in places. I’d guess replacing it would be prohibitively expensive.

Have any of you guys removed it completely and just painted the ceiling?</SPAN>
Any recommendations?
Thanks,</SPAN>
If you study it and mentally "deconstruct" your overhead a bit.....
it's a fabric-backed vinyl that is pretty common in the upholstery biz. Above that head liner is probably a sheet of 1/4" soft foam.
If you can use the old one for a pattern, you could have a shop sew up new sections. Once you stretch them into place and re-drive a zillion staples around the perimmeter, just reinstall the teak strips that cover the edge.
Kind of tedious (right, ya think?....) pulling out all the old staples, but as one of the E-owners here might say, "it isn't rocket science."
You could even have some additional zippers put in the new sections.
I would not even want to think about trying to smooth-finish the overhead. An awful lot of work and then all the ss nuts and bolt ends would be protrude and gouge your head.
Opinions rendered cheerfully, deposit one virtual cent.
